For installing discourse with official guideline and env, with many days I encountered email failure.

Latest version upgraded, and failure logs now is shown. The commit - [FIX: don’t create an EmailLog when we can’t send a digest](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/commit/52a66826907bebe81b13ea6bd417f13a05443507)

Now I can see the following error, and it seems it is not due to smtp server error.

Log error is:

```
Job exception: end of file reached

```

The backtrace is:
