Setup a self hosted instance and am using Gmail SMTP server with an app password.
However, when I try to register a test user, I get an error indicating that "This server hasn't correctly set up email."
I used the Lemmy Easy Deploy project to set my system up. Following is the relevant section of the lemmy.hjson config file:
Network configs were removed from the docker-compose file. Does anyone know whether in its current form, whether any outgoing network connection on TCP/587 (TLS SMTP) would work?
Can't test myself inside the Lemmy container, as that one doesn't have any real commands installed in it.
A bit more progress as I am able to get connected to Gmail SMTP server via the openssl command inside the Lemmy container. Still wondering why I get the "This server hasn't correctly set up email" error.
lemmy@2ba1e7b7ab5b:/$ openssl s_client -connect smtp.gmail.com:587 -starttls smtp
