I am running a Sage notebook server for my students. Every time one of my students creates an account, the notebook sends the student an e-mail with a link to confirm their e-mail address. However, that e-mail gets bounced back to the server since my machine is not authorized to send e-mail messages. However, the bounced back message cannot be delivered since my server does not support incoming mail, and the message gets stuck in my college's mail queue. Then I get nasty messages from my college's unix system administrator.
I want to turn off the "feature" of the notebook that sends out e-mail messages to everyone who creates an account. As far as I can tell, you can use your newly created account to log in to the notebook, even without receiving the e-mail and confirming your e-mail address. My students and I are able to use Sage just fine. I just want to avoid the complaints from my sysadmin about the bounced e-mail being sent by my server. -- Greg On Fri, Jul 11, 2008 at 10:15 PM, Matthew Miller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Greg, > > It's not clear from your message, but are you running Sage locally or > are you trying to get an account on a remote Sage installation? > > If it is a local Sage installation then no emails need to be sent for > any reason in order to have the notebook interface work. > > Clarify things if you don't get Sage to work.
