My config file have this email configure. Why I doesn’t receive email ?

[email]

; Use SMTP for sending mail instead of mail()
smtp = On

; SMTP server settings
smtp_server = “ssl://smtp.gmail.com”
smtp_port = 465

; Enable SMTP authentication
; Supported mechanisms: ssl, tls
smtp_auth = ssl
smtp_username = “(removed)@gmail.com”
smtp_password = “(removed)”

; Allow envelope sender to be specified
; (may not be possible with some server configurations)
; allow_envelope_sender = On

; Default envelope sender to use if none is specified elsewhere
; default_envelope_sender = integralferma@gmail.com

; Force the default envelope sender (if present)
; This is useful if setting up a site-wide noreply address
; The reply-to field will be set with the reply-to or from address.
; force_default_envelope_sender = Off

; Amount of time required between attempts to send non-editorial emails
; in seconds. This can be used to help prevent email relaying via OJS.
time_between_emails = 3600

; Maximum number of recipients that can be included in a single email
; (either as To:, Cc:, or Bcc: addresses) for a non-priveleged user
max_recipients = 10

; If enabled, email addresses must be validated before login is possible.
require_validation = Off

; Maximum number of days before an unvalidated account expires and is deleted
validation_timeout = 14

Hi @integralferma,

I think you accidentally posted your credentials! Please change them immediately, and be careful not to share these publicly.

Hi @integralferma,

OK, thanks. See Email for documentation on Gmail SMTP configuration.

I don’t issue my problem. I did all from your link. I change email from AOL and can’t send email too. I think that problem in phpmailer.

Hi @integralferma,

Make sure you’re following the suggestions for OJS 3.x; the configuration you quoted above would work for OJS 2.x but you’re running OJS 3.1.1-4.
