Your tip works! Problem now is I need to disable the polling because I don't want my test instance of OpenTaps to be connected to any real email mailbox. How do I do that?

Setting those properties ("mail.store.protocol", "mail.host", etc) in framework/common/config/general.properties doesn't work. I think the OFBizBasicProductionSetup.pdf document needs to be updated; there's no mention of your fix in there.

Hi Scott,

Nope, no caps. I'm leaning toward fact that I may not have IMAP (only POP3?). But thanks for tip, it's going into my research notes.

Hi Jonathan

Does your password include capital letters? There's a bug in the JavaMailContainer that converts all properties in the config file to lower case.

It uses port 25. Actually, the "unable to connect to mail store" error message relates to IMAP. Sorry about wrong initial problem identification. Where do I disable IMAP in OpenTaps? How is IMAP used in OpenTaps?

I was getting tons of error logs because of some periodic IMAP access (and failure) that filled up my whole harddisk. That prompted me to look at this IMAP problem. Yes, I know I should look at log4j settings at some point, but I'm trying to root out all errors first.

Is it possible your smtp relay host doesn't use port
25? (If I remember correctly, GMail uses 465)
If so, you may need to declare an additional property
mail.smtp.port
Or if there is anything else that is unusual about
your relay host you can find the additional attributes

Yes, I did. It's on ('Y'). The error message in
console.log is "unable to connect to mail store".

did you see the property in general.properties...
mail.notifications.enabled=Y

On a machine where I'm able to send emails out
using
`sendmail', can I do the same with OFBiz? Or does JavaMailContainer require some special SMTP
setup?

I've tried entering into
framework/common/config/general.properties values
for properties "mail.smtp.relay.host", "mail.smtp.auth.user" and
"mail.smtp.auth.password". I used values that I know should work (like the credentials of the
SMTP
server I am currently sending this email out with). Doesn't work.
