** [tickets:#8292] how to configure external smtp server properties in
development.ini for configuring mail**
**Status:** open

I am able to send mail using the sample python smtp configuration from my local
machine using the below code
*sender = 'f...@fromdomain.com'
receivers = ['t...@todomain.com']
message = """From: From Person <f...@fromdomain.com>
To: To Person <t...@todomain.com>
Subject: SMTP e-mail test
This is a test e-mail message.
"""
try:
smtpObj = smtplib.SMTP('**externalServerAddress**:**portNumber**')
smtpObj.sendmail(sender, receivers, message)
print "Successfully sent email"
except SMTPException:
print "Error: unable to send email"*
W.r.to development.ini I tried configuring the below SMTP parameters
error_email_from = f...@fromdomain.com
; SMTP settings for outgoing mail
smtp_tls = false
smtp_ssl = false
smtp_timeout = 10
smtp_server = **externalServerAddress**
smtp_port = **portNumber**
; Reply-To and From address often used in email notifications:
forgemail.return_path = f...@fromdomain.com
forgemail.host = **externalServerAddress**
forgemail.port = **portNumber**
; domain suffix for your mail, change this. You also need to route
*.*.*.forgemail.domain to the above host/port via
; your mail and DNS configuration
forgemail.domain = fromDomain.com
Even after configuring the above parameters, and starting the gunicorn, the
mails are not sent from ui.
Am I missing any configuration in development.ini file.
Could someone assist in setting up the configuration to externalServerAddress
in development.ini so that the email could be sent from tickets.
