      @Bai:

      @robfantini:

      Which version of CB are you using?

      And PfSense version?

      Newest of both.  1.7 and 1.2.3

      It's still running today from yesterday.  So I'm guessing my problem is that I can't always tell when something will make a firewall change and force me to restart CB.

      Is there any way to have CB be part of the firewall restart?  Surely there has to be some sort of hook for that.

      It's possible. I have been trying to make countryblock more integrated since the day I started development. I never figured it out. I'm hoping that I will soon or someone will.

        Trying out the email config:  entered in the applicable settings, clicked Save, and this error appears:

        Couldn't write values to file!

        Navigating again to the email tab reveals this line:

        Uninstalling / re-installing doesn't seem to help :(

          Are you leaving a field blank? If so which field?
          EDIT: Which browser are you using?

            Yep, leaving Username and Password blank, as my ISP doesn't require that info.  I can just use Gmail, if that will satisfy CB ?

            Using Chrome.

            EDIT:  works great with Gmail (all fields filled in).

            Thanks tho :)

              All fields must be filled in for the email function to work.
              Dont forget that for it to be able to restart CB you must have started it at least once.

                  @DigitalJer  set SMTP Auth = No and see if that works

                  @robfantini
                  You did the quote wrong.

                  But heres the info you requested:
                  SMTP Auth = Yes
                  SMTP Security = Yes
                  Host = smtp.gmail.com  (this is for gmail and GApps users)
                  Port = 465
                  User name = your full username (test@gmail.com)
                  Password = your password
                  Use HTML Formatting = Yes
                  From Email address = your full username (test@gmail.com)
                  To Email address = email you are sending notifications to
                  Subject = whatever you want

                    thank you, that worked.  I had been using the wrong port.

                        I had that happen until I filled in all fields , pressed save.

                        SMTP auth  could not be set to no.    Originally I wanted to use our local LAN mail server . I could only use my gmail smtp account.

                          any smtp account should work.

                          For the smtp auth did you still fill in the username and password when it was set to no?

                              I did set the account username and password .. I ended up with an ssl error.

                              Just checked the log on our postfix server.

                              Looks like the cb pgm works… must be due to not having the full mail address..

                                looks like the username was rejected as the mail server requires usernames to be like test@gmail.com instead of test.

                                  I tried to switch to non ssl and our local server.

                                  at the top of the email settings is:

                                  "Your settings have already been set. Would you like to overwrite your email settings?"

                                  I click save below and 
                                  1- the ssl setting does not change
                                  2- the messages stays at the top of the screen.

                                  i just checked /usr/local/www/packages/countryblock/email_send.php

                                  and ssl is set to false.

                                  However and I just checked again  -  SMTP Auth  is 'yes' .

                                  so i  from cli:

                                    I am also unable to change " HTML formatting " to  no .

                                    these are small issues and I am not complaining!  if there is anything you'd like me to test then email a file or let me know what to do.

                                      the message about settings already set will always be there.

                                      I hope outside users connecting to your mail server use SSL otherwise all their passwords are sent in the clear

                                      right now:
                                      subject line does not get set
                                      it only works with ssl connections because it is set to implement OpenSSL

                                        we do use ssl for off site imap . and do not accept mail relays .

                                        Anyways maybe I should try to setup internal ssl to make this work.

                                          The SMTP Auth, SMTP Security, and Use HTML Drop down lists display the default values regardless of your settings. This is a bug, so just be aware that it may be displayed as one thing but it's another. This will be fixed soon now that it's identified.
                                          I will also fix it so the password field will be black and the subject input will reflect on your emails.
