It feels like since I last updated discourse a few days back, that reply email is no longer working, it is not being received and thus not updating the topic, and sent email for watched categories is also misbehaving, only sending 5 of 65. Does anyone else have recent email issues?

Confirmed: Severe Email Issue seems fixed since I upgraded to 3.5.0.beta1-dev, forced dns nameserver to 8.8.8.8 (from 1.1.1.1) and rebooted. I also extended the SMTP open_timeout to 15, but probably not needed, but I do not intend to set it back to the default of 5,

I tried git checkout v3.4.0.beta2 in the docker but failed multiple times to roll back despite specifying app.yml file as well. So will see if there’s a contact person at Discourse to fix this 550 err bug for beta5 soon.

I am so sorry, I did not realize that, I will not do that again. Thank you for pointing this out to me about the mentions.

I use brevo, but I don’t think it’s related to brevo based on what I see that some emails do go out. The replies are coming via Gmail but that has always worked. Perhaps the other responder can let us know what he is using. He has the same issue.

It’s under server logs and reports. Can send test email and will return 550 Mail error in Skipped tab. Haven’t heard anything from any developer. I think also with PostGres 15 update the settings may not be transferred to the db to execute if app.yml requires communication.

I can successfully send a test email, no error. That Test email goes out via Brevo. The issue for me is the watched category emails only go out to a few users. The missing emails don’t show up as skipped. The bulk of the users just don’t get sent the emails The second issue is the Reply emails ne…

I’m on Ubuntu 22.04, which also had a container upgrade recently, but I did not notice the email issue until after I updated discourse, Which of course also upgraded Postgres. What operating system are you running Phil?

this shows up a lot in the production log: Email can not be processed: Email::Receiver::EmptyEmailError tail -1000 production.log-20250202 | grep ‘Email::Receiver::EmptyEmailError’ | wc -l 291 I see this topic, but don’t understand the solution, anyone can explain it to me please? Like where is…

Happy to hear it is sorted, DNS configurations are the root of 78% of all problems in the sysadmin world.
