test mailserver configuration

[pvgenuchten]

What is the best way to test if the mailserver configuration is correct? A suggestion could be to add a button to the web ui to send a test mail?

For the docker configuration, i notice there is no email configuration field for defaultFromEmail, which would typically be set as [email protected] (our relay server is setup that it only allows to send with that from-email).

Hmm, yes, a button is a bit overkill IMO, and only meant for the admin user. Ok, maybe only show in that case. For now, a bit unusual: go to login screen and try 'reset password'. If all is well, you should receive an email with the tokenized reset link (that you don't need to execute).

defaultFromEmail: indeed, think we take the SMTP username, which is usually an email address. Can you open an issue?
