----------------------------------------
Summary: SMTP TLS support request
Key: LOG4J2-2548
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LOG4J2-2548
Project: Log4j 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Appenders
Affects Versions: 2.11.0
Environment: Linux server-2 4.15.0-43-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 6
14:45:28 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Reporter: John Scott Brown
Fix For: 2.11.0
Attachments: GmailAppender.java, GmailManager.java
For various reasons I am trying to use Gmail as my SMTP server for outgoing
messages. I ran into two issues which I am reporting separately. The first
issue was that the only I could use a gmail account for such a server is if I
used port 587 with TLS. I tried port 465 with SSL but couldn't connect, but,
the former combination does work. This means being able to add the properties:
props.put("mail.smtp.auth", "true");
props.put("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true");
to the javamail session initiator.
I wound up writing a custom appender based on SMTP appender and manager that
provided this feature. I am dropping in this code for reference only. It is
intended for Gmail only and is not production worthy.
