Unauthenticated relay in SMTP <other> profile broken-ish

[cchiapusio]

When setting SMTP profile to and clearing the username and password fields, the username and password entries need to be removed from cfg/advanced.yaml to allow unauthenticated SMTP relay to function.

provider: "other" address: "192.168.10.8" port: "25" username: "" password: "" report: interval: "7"

503 5.5.1 Error: authentication not enabled ["/usr/lib/ruby/2.3.0/net/smtp.rb:998:in check_auth_response'", "/usr/lib/ruby/2.3.0/net/smtp.rb:753:in auth_plain'", "/usr/lib/ruby/2.3.0/net/smtp.rb:745:in authenticate'", "/usr/lib/ruby/2.3.0/net/smtp.rb:580:in do_start'", "/usr/lib/ruby/2.3.0/net/smtp.rb:521:in start'", "/usr/lib/ruby/gems/2.3.0/gems/mail-2.6.3/lib/mail/network/delivery_methods/smtp.rb:112:in deliver!'", "/usr/lib/ruby/gems/2.3.0/gems/mail-2.6.3/lib/mail/message.rb:252:in deliver!'", "/var/lib/nowshowing/mailReport.rb:99:in sendMail'", "/usr/local/sbin/combinedreport:452:in main'", "/usr/local/sbin/combinedreport:460:in

'"]

If you remove the null username and password entries:

provider: "other" address: "192.168.10.8" port: "25" report: interval: "7"

the email can be delivered:

Interesting. Thanks for the Feedback. This was designed for authenticated smtp relays, but you aren't the first to want to use it on a local non-auth'd server. I'll have to look into redesigning the way that part works a bit. Thanks for letting me know.
