Greenmail standalone smtp server email error - smtp

I started a standalone Greenmail SMTP server with the following configurations in root mode so that i can use 25 port,
java -Dgreenmail.setup.all -Dgreenmail.users=test1:pwd1 -Dgreenmail.hostname=10.107.45.11 -jar greenmail-standalone.jar
I am able to connect to this mail server on port 25 and send an email (from telnet as well as a java program) without any error.
But when i try to find the email I sent (using a java program), it comes out as 0 always.
Received emails is always zero.
I am not sure if Greenmail can be used in this manner as a standalone server.
Can anyone please help?

After much of trying, I understand that the "INBOX" from which we need to fetch the messages is tied to the username and the following invocation of standalone greenmail jar gives you the emails that you expect to receive.
We need to pass the username, password and To-email address for it work seamlessly.
Also, specifying the ports separately makes it much easier to customize.
java -Dgreenmail.smtp.port=25 -Dgreenmail.imap.port=143 -Dgreenmail.users=test1:pwd1#10.107.45.11 -Dgreenmail.hostname=10.107.45.11 -jar greenmail-standalone-1.5.3.jar

Talend open studio send gmail mail

my job contains a simple tSendMailCompenent
the configuration are as follow:
smtp host = smtp.gmail.com
smtp port = 465
beside the user name, email to, ...
also, I have allowed a less secure app for the Gmail account sending
the problem is after I run the job, the Talend hang up the job is running forever
I've never seen this component hang. It usually returns quickly if there is an issue.
Have you tried creating a simple Job with just the component so that you can establish that it is this component, on it's own, at fault?

Using domain mail server for sendmail

The piece of php script is:
$sendmail=1;
$sendmail_path='/path/to/sendmail';
$smtp_server='localhost';
My webhost want me to use my domain smtp mail server mail.xxxxx.net instead of "localhost" otherwise sendmail is blocked.
I don't know how to reset the script.
Please help me
Thanks
One of the settings that you tried
<?php
$smtp_server='mail.telugugreetings.net';
is actually a correct setting, as indicated by its error message:
Additional errors: 550 Access denied - Invalid HELO name (See RFC2821 4.1.1.1)
This is an SMTP error, so you have successfully connected to your SMTP server. This error indicates a completely different problem:
4.1.1.1 Extended HELLO (EHLO) or HELLO (HELO)
These commands are used to identify the SMTP client to the SMTP server. The argument field contains the fully-qualified domain name of the SMTP client if one is available. In situations in which the SMTP client system does not have a meaningful domain name (e.g., when its address is dynamically allocated and no reverse mapping record is available), the client SHOULD send an address literal (see section 4.1.3), optionally followed by information that will help to identify the client system. y The SMTP server identifies itself to the SMTP client in the connection greeting reply and in the response to this command.
Make sure that you are setting the "From" field properly. It should probably be something ending in #telugugreetings.net. Without knowing more about your mail server and your PHP code, including any libraries you may be using to send mail, I can't be more specific.
You might need to contact your hosting provider again to ask about this new error message.
The PHP manual's mail() Runtime configuration says:
Used under Windows only: host name or IP address of the SMTP server PHP should use for mail sent with the mail() function.

Is this on you local Windows machine?
Are you hosting on a Windows machine?
If not Windows the SMTP directive is ignored.
If you have a Windows machine:
The PHP setting for SMPT is a "PHP_INI_ALL, Entry can be set anywhere"
Which mean this directive can be set Runtime, in:
php.ini, .htaccess, httpd.conf or .user.ini
Get you SMPT Configurations Setting:
echo ini_get('SMTP');
To Set you SMTP
ini_set ('SMTP', $SMPTServer)
Where $SMPTServer is the host name or IP address of the SMTP server PHP should use for mail sent.

Implementing an intelligent relay with an SMTP server/client

I need to implement an intelligent mailing list/relay (on Linux). The idea is that:
The server receives emails to a list address
It parses the mail, and confirms that it's from a trusted source
It looks up a list of recipients in a local database
It does some minor processing on the incoming mail, and sends it out to the list
It returns any bounce messages to the original sender
The server already has sendmail installed, but I can use another MTA if necessary.
This sounds straightforward, and sendmail already has a database look-up capability. However, I don't think this is particularly flexible, and I don't want to give sendmail independent access to my database.
The closest I've come to an existing solution is E-MailRelay, which looks good, but I don't want the overhead of integrating it if I can avoid it.
I'd appreciate a sanity check on my Plan B before starting it, or alternative suggestions. I haven't found any useful docs on this and the Sendmail book doesn't seem to have anything relevant in it.
What I'm thinking about is:
Implement an SMTP delivery agent for sendmail, and have sendmail and the DA running on the same server, with the DA listening on some unspecified port (which?)
Sendmail presumably acts as an SMTP client when connecting to the DA, and my DA will respond to MAIL/RCPT/DATA commands
The DA processes the received mail, which will be either a message out to the mailing list, or a bounce, or possibly a response
The DA then switches to client mode, connects to sendmail, and issues MAIL/RCT/DATA commands to return the response to the original sender
Does this make sense? Thanks.
This turned out to be pretty straightforward, although I didn't use a sendmail delivery agent - I just did everthing in SMTP. The server has two IP addresses, and sendmail is already listening on port 25 on IP#1.
I wrote an SMTP proxy which listens on port 25 on IP#2. This runs an SMTP server, which accepts incoming messages, and re-writes them. It then connects (as a client) to port 25 on IP#1, sending the re-written message to sendmail. sendmail then handles transmission to the re-written destination addresses. This is all transparent to the original mail client.
Not sure how I'd do this if the server only had one IP address, though.

Send mail task failure with error due to SMTP Connection

I've created an SSIS package which runs perfect when scheduled as a job.Now I've have a requirement that a mail ought to be sent every time it runs stating if the package was successfully completed or failed.
I've created an SMTP Connection with server name as mx.xxxxxxxx(organization).I've neither checked windows authentication or Enable Secure Socket Layer Options(as suggested in various blogs).
The Job runs fine and sends mail when run manually but is failing when scheduled as a job.
I've tried running it by editing the command line as suggested by many but with no success.
Can you please suggest where I might be going wrong,
Below is the error:
Argument "SMTP" for option "connection" is not valid. The command line parameters are invalid. The step failed.
Since it fails when you run it from your production server, regardless of whether you run it manually or from the job, it is probably related either to connectivity (can your production server connect to the smtp server), or it could be permissions related, if you are using some kind of proxy account on the server that is different from the one you use in your local BIDS.

Connection to MS Exchange server using JavaMail hangs

(If this is a duplicate question, please send me a link to the appropriate thread.)
I wrote a Java program using JavaMail API to send an email to several users through Gmail and it worked perfectly. However, when I tried to use the same code (with slight modification) to use MS Exchange Server to send emails, the program hangs.
It did not throw any exceptions, so I am assuming that it is able to make the connection. (I had tried using other ports or wrong SMTP address and it gave me a 'Connection refused' exception.)
This was the last statement and the program does not terminate after that:
[DEBUG SMTP: trying to connect to host "[xxx.yyy.com]", port 135, isSSL false]
Please understand that I do not need help with the code, but I just want to understand what's going on.
I appreciate your time.
You need to connect to port 25 for SMTP, not port 135. (SMTPs is port 465.)
