[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Hi,
I followed instructions from:
http://prantran.blogspot.com/2007/01...untu-with.html
to use postfix to send mails trough gmail.com using sendmail.
My problem is when my bugzilla uses sendmail to send mails to
specified addresses.
From time to time my gmail account is locked i suppose this is
because it sends too many emails in a short period of time.
In the mail log file i have:
postfix/error[6910]:...status=deferred (delivery temporarily suspended:
SASL authentication failed; server smtp.gmail.com[209.85.135.111] said:
535-5.7.1 Username and Password not accepted. Learn more at ?535 5.7.1
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/a...y?answer=14257 e10sm16942073muf.14)
And i must use that link to unlock the gmail account (it ask me for a captcha).
Do you have any idea how to implement some delays between emails
wen postfix sends the email?
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
smtp_destination_rate_delay = 60
relay_destination_rate_delay = 60

And if you discover that you are still seeing the "locked account"
problem where you have to re-enter the captcha code then try changing
your gmail password to something that the gmail password page accepts as
at least a STRONG (not FAIR or GOOD) password.
We are seeing our customers who use google apps hosted email having to
re-enter the captcha code and they definitely don't send emails out too
fast (individual, non-tech users on low bandwidth connections). It
happens only to customers who were set up on the hosted address with a
weak/poor/fair password. When they set a better password it stops happening.
