Discourse - SMTP from OVH

Yes I still have a forum that runs with a ovh email pro account, it works well with these settings

  ## TODO: The SMTP mail server used to validate new accounts and send notifications
  DISCOURSE_SMTP_ADDRESS: pro1.mail.ovh.net
  DISCOURSE_SMTP_PORT: 587
  DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME: postmaster@*******
  DISCOURSE_SMTP_PASSWORD: "*********"
  DISCOURSE_SMTP_ENABLE_START_TLS: true           # (optional, default true)
  DISCOURSE_SMTP_AUTHENTICATION: login

Maybe their settings change for the pro2 email server, but I doubt it. You can try with a false setting for enable start tls or another port, I’m sure it’s still doable.

If you want to make a few tests quickly, you don’t have a rebuild the app everytime. You can run

./launcher destroy app
./launcher start app

To update email settings
