Group (@Groupname) Emails Not Being Sent

Let's try that post again with the proper formatting:

[announcer] admit_domains =
always_notify_owner = true
always_notify_reporter = true
always_notify_updater = true
ignore_domains =
mime_encoding = base64
smtp_always_bcc =
smtp_default_domain = mydomain.local
smtp_enabled = true
smtp_from = trac-notify@mydomain.net
smtp_from_name = Trac Ticket Notification System
smtp_password =
smtp_port = 25
smtp_replyto = donotreply@mydomain.net
smtp_server = domaincontroller.mydomain.local
smtp_user =
ticket_email_header_fields = owner, reporter, type, status, milestone, component, priority, version, resolution
ticket_subject_template = $prefix #$ticket.id: $summary
use_public_cc = false
use_short_addr = false
use_tls = false
joinable_groups = Management, Leads

And for the record, before using the announcer plugin, the standard ticket notification system worked as billed. And to clarify, the version of Trac running is 0.11rc1, not previous betas.

Emails are not sent without logging in. Here you have no username/password. I had the same problem and made a patch that solves it. attachment:"localmail.patch". Please commit to trunk.

Allow mail to be sent with no username/password

Well, seems that my attachment is not uploading properly.

Your patch file posted correctly as an attachment ... you just have to click "Download in Original Format" at the bottom of the attachment page. Patch and Diff files do not display correctly in Trac.

I will apply the patch and let you know what happens! Thanks for the help!

Please remake it without the No newline at end of file marker. Note that this is already fixed in 0.11 :-)

allow anonymous mail sending

ok, that should be better

The patch did not work for me--same behavior as before.

• Reporters receive email
• Assigned parties receive email
• Updaters receive email

But no email is sent to any of the @Groupname groups. I also tried the fix posted on ticket #2697; when trying that fix no one receives any email.

Is there anything else I can try? Note: the email address I am trying to send the email from is not the same as the logged in user's account.

TIA,

Brett

Post smtp logs and trac logs.

Trac log for an email event:

It doesn't even look like either of the groups I have created (Management and Leads) are being referenced, even though the groups were intended to be copied on the ticket. I'll get the SMTP log out in a few minutes.

There isn't any information in either the Windows 2K3 SBS message tracking tool or the exchange server log. It looks as if the emails for the joinable groups are never even being sent from the announcerplugin to the exchange server.

Let me know if you need anything else.

can you add:

[components]
announcerplugin.subscribers.ticket_groups

to your config and try again?

Exactly that line, or the following line?

[components]
announcerplugin.subscribers.ticket_groups = enabled

add the second line to the components section

Adding the line I posted in the previous comment did not fix the problem. Same output.

The line of most interest, I think, is the line that reads:

2008-06-24 11:42:14,118 Trac[api] DEBUG: AnnouncementSystem found the following subscribers capable of handling 'ticket, created': LegacyTicketSubscriber, WatchSubscriber

It seems like that is where the JoinableGroups? subscribers should be found, yes?

I also face the same problem. The email is not sent.

The log says

How can I get the Announcer plugin working

I just took over this plugin. I'll have a look by Sunday.

Thanks for taking a look doki_pen. FYI, I have since upgraded to 0.11 (and am still experiencing the same problem). Keep us posted on how things progress!

TIA,

Brett

Looks like revision 3107 broke the query around line 50. code never tested after change!! lol. Fixing now.

Should be fixed in -r4045 Please test and tell me how it works

Just installed -r4048 and it works for me. I would close the ticket, but in the interest of making sure it works for all other interested parties, I'll leave it up. Thanks doki_pen!
