There are a large amount of applications that support using an smtp server to send things like reminders and registration confirmations. The most recent example I’ve encountered is Vikunja, whose environmental variables for it look like this:
VIKUNJA_MAILER_ENABLED: 1
VIKUNJA_MAILER_FORCESSL: 1
VIKUNJA_MAILER_HOST: smtp.gmail.com
VIKUNJA_MAILER_PORT: 465
VIKUNJA_MAILER_USERNAME: youremail@gmail.com
VIKUNJA_MAILER_PASSWORD: Y0uRp@55W0rD!
My question is, what do I need to change in this to properly set this up? I created a mailbox for it and entered relevant information, but it didn’t work. The following is what I tried(censored the password):
VIKUNJA_MAILER_ENABLED: 1
VIKUNJA_MAILER_FORCESSL: 1
VIKUNJA_MAILER_HOST: mail.blairtech.org
VIKUNJA_MAILER_PORT: 465
VIKUNJA_MAILER_USERNAME: vikunja@blairtech.org
VIKUNJA_MAILER_PASSWORD: Y0uRp@55W0rD!
EDIT: Just want to add that my mailserver is in a VPS, while everything else is hosted on my homeserver.
