#3486: notify has no support for smtplib local_host parameter
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
Reporter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Owner: jonas
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: general | Version: 0.9.5
Severity: normal | Keywords: notification, smtp
-------------------------------+--------------------------------------------
The constructor for an SMTP object in smtplib takes an optional 3rd
parameter, 'local_hostname', otherwise it will execute the following line
in smtplib.py:
{{{
#!python
addr = socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())
}}}
which always fails on my system, because my hostname is not fully-
qualified. I've only been able to successfully send mail using smtplib
when I set the local_hostname parameter.
However, Notify.py, has no way of setting this:
{{{
#!python
def begin_send(self):
self.server = smtplib.SMTP(self.smtp_server, self.smtp_port)
}}}
(only the first two parameters are used)
It should be possible to specify the third parameter of this constructor
from trac.ini.
