HELP: cannot send email out after upgraded to 2.3.3
-
See attached picture. Besides options shown in the picture, I have also tried:
untick "Disable SMTP notification"
use 587, 25, 465 ports
All input are correct, no typo.The email server I input is correct, I tested with "telnet email-server 587", etc.
I don't know why the error msg is " Error: could not connect to the host … ??". The same setting worked in the old version of pfsense 2.3.5.
-
To repeat: Ports 25 and 587 generally need STARTTLS. SSL/TLS generally needs to be on port 465.
The email server I input is correct, I tested with "telnet email-server 587", etc.
The proper test for how you have that configured would be:
openssl s_client -connect mail_server:587
Which would almost certainly fail.
-
You're right. port 25 no ssl/tls. port 465 for ssl, 587 for tls. I have tried many different combinations.
I just tried your command from ssh console, testing is OK (see picture).
The problem is why cannot connect the host from pfSense notification page? I can connect to the mail server host in ssh console.
-
That is not a successful connection.
To test a connection to that server using encryption on port 587 you would need:
openssl s_client -connect mail.server:587 -starttls smtp
IF YOU ARE CONNECTING ON PORT 25 or 587 AND WANT ENCRYPTION YOU NEED TO USE STARTTLS
IF YOU WANT TO CONNECT USING SSL/TLS YOU NEED TO USE PORT 465
-
The correct command for testing STARTTLS is:
openssl s_client -starttls smtp -crlf -connect smtp.gmail.com:587
(use either Ctrl+C or type QUIT+CrLf to end)
Provide output (you can sanitize it a bit if it shows your cert info.To test different versions of SSL, try -ssl3, -tls1, -tls1_1 and -tls1_2
Could be that your server is not supporting recent SSL versions which were disabled in pfSence…
-
He is connecting to port 587 using SSL/TLS. That will never work.
-
Thanks for all reply. If use 587:
-
If use 465,
-
All above errors are not caused by input parameters or our email server.

Note this bug https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/7516 "Notify test buttons for smtp/growl should use new unsaved settings" and PR https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/pull/3691 that fixes it.
In current releases (e.g. 2.3.3-p1) you have to save the settings first, then use the test buttons. It just tests the currently-saved settings, not the changes you may just have made in the form.
The fix is in 2.3.4 which is coming.
So maybe when you are trying lots of combinations and pressing "test", you are not actually getting an effective test.
-
Looking at your screenshots, I believe that something else is corrupted, possibly in the config - look at pfsense-email6.PNG - it says that it could not start TLS.
I would suggest you take packet capture with this setting and look at it in Wireshark - make sure it goes to the right destination, connects and tries to negotiate SSL session. -
In current releases (e.g. 2.3.3-p1) you have to save the settings first, then use the test buttons.
I first click "save", then click test in above screenshots.

Please, review this forum thread - it may have an answer for you.
I did not read it in full, but it seems that there is an issue with certs used for SMTP, issued by private CA - pfSence has to trust them and some public CA certs might be missing in newer builds… -
Maybe it's time to simplify and apply isolation troubleshooting techniques.
Remove encryption from the equation. To protect authentication credentials, change the password or create a throwaway account for testing.
From time to time some CA's are eliminated from the store. Don't recall the error message that occurs when that happens so don't know if your error messages are due to that or not.

Here are complete packages for one testing of 465:

You should really do this with port 587, save pcap file and review it in Wireshark.
But even with this capture - it looks like it connects, but can't authenticate or negotiate proper SSL channel. -

pfSense likely missing the CA for the server cert.
I agree. But that needs to be tested/verified :)

Which is not that difficult to do and the start tls error message being thrown is exactly what happens when the CA is missing.
Error: could not start TLS connection encryption protocol
Going on a week and 2 forum pages for this without looking at the certs is nonsense.
