I configured Roller 4.0 for mail settings shown below - mail.hostname=smtp.gmail.com mail.username=admin mail.password=admin123 mail.port=465
On startup the roller logs are showing the exception WARN 2009-09-15 11:24:40,078 WebloggerStartup:prepare - Failed to setup mail provider, continuing anways. Reason: ERROR connecting to mail server org.apache.roller.weblogger.business.startup.StartupException: ERROR connecting to mail server at org.apache.roller.weblogger.business.MailProvider.<init>(MailProvider.java:99) ........ ........ javax.mail.MessagingException: Could not connect to SMTP host: localhost, port: 25; nested exception is: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.openServer(SMTPTransport.java:1282) at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.protocolConnect(SMTPTransport.java:370) at javax.mail.Service.connect(Service.java:275) I believe this exception occus because Gmail mail server only allows SSL connection. Does anybody aware of any mail server which allows connection without SSL? or Is there any document/article available about how to setup mail with SSL for Roller 4.0? I tried but couldn't find any.... Regards, Viv
