SMTP does not work...

[marcogaio]

I'm testing Claper (wondeful!) for a Linux User group here in north east of Italy (Pordenone Linux User Group, PNLug).

I was able to run the docker container, fix some issue putting it behind a nginx reverse proxy (if needed, i can provide feedback on that, because i've not found info on documents) but still Claper does not send email.

Docker VM is part of a little virtualization setup, where there's also an SMTP server/relay that send email for all the services. I've setup .env as:

SMTP_RELAY=10.21.13.180
SMTP_AUTH=never
SMTP_PORT=25
SMTP_TLS=never
SMTP_SSL=false

But email does not get sent; even, i've sniffed on network interfaces, end there's even NO SMTP traffic, so Claper seems never tries to send email...

Network and SMTP server reachability seems fine:
