Hi Martin,
FYI the mail debugging feature is now fully enabled in 2.0.5-SNAPSHOT, and the upgraded documentation

https://ci.apache.org/projects/syncope/2_0_X/reference-guide.html#e-mail-configuration

now features a couple of working samples.

Please note that with 2.0.4, while making STARTTLS work is possible (but not trivial), mail debugging is not.

Regards.

Hi Francesco,

Thanks for your feedback. I created an issues as requested:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNCOPE-1180

Regarding the documentation, I am still missing the information that I would like to see in there. So I am kinda unable to contribute.

Regards,

Martin

    Hi Francesco,

    I finally had the chance to give Syncope 2.0.4 a try on a fresh
    machine as you suggested. Good news: I do not have any issues with
    the notification page any more.


That's great to hear :-)


    However, notifications are not working due to the email
    configuration. I found the documentation in the reference guide
    lacks of important details.

    https://syncope.apache.org/docs/reference-guide.html#e-mail-configuration

    1.The reference guide only names the properties. This is fine for
    user, host, etc., but the protocol needs some explanation. I you
    have never worked with JavaMail, you’re lost. It would be really
    helpful to have a link from the Syncope mail properties to the
    JavaMail properties (if this link exists). Or just give examples
    for SMTP with STARTSSL (there is no flag for enabling StartSSL!?)
    and SMTPS scenarios.


Feel free to open a PR for improving the docs; in particular

https://github.com/apache/syncope/blob/2_0_X/src/main/asciidoc/reference-guide/workingwithapachesyncope/systemadministration/emailconfiguration.adoc

If you would like to go along this way, please first take a look at

http://syncope.apache.org/contributing.html

and send an ICLA as specified, thanks!


    2.Where to find the promised debug output when mailDebug is set to
    true? I restarted tomcat and created a notification task. There is
    no info on “handshake, authentication, delivery and disconnection”
    in catalina.out or core.log or console.log


This would need some investigation: would you mind opening an issue on JIRA? Thanks.

Regards.
