Hello, I developed my own Ghost theme and am now trying to switch to Ghost 3.0 features. Specifically the members option. When trying to set up the email auth (Mailgun) I changed my production.config.json accordingly in Digital Ocean server console - I’m almost 100% sure I got it right. However, Gh…

Hello Martin, Just checked your configuration and seems find the problem. You have added this line: "secureConnection": true, But it’s not needed (only needed if you use a non secured SMTP port like default 25/tcp but in your case you used 587/tcp, submission port is already secured) then remove…

Oh cripes. That was it. Turns out it was broken and being fixed right as I was trying to get it working for the first time! As of 10 hours ago, all is revealed here . In summary, yes, "secure" needs to be set to false, and the key recently changed names from "secureConnection". The incorrect key wa…

The "secure": false, didn’t work for me. I’m trying now to remove that line together with the port one, as suggested in one of the comments above the one you linked to. But “Too many attempts try again in an hour”. So I’ll wait…

I’m pretty sure the default uses non-secure SMTP (eg. port 25). Not the end of the world, but should be highly unnecessary if you’re using Mailgun and Ghost. What is the error you get?

OK, that didn’t work either. Just to be clear, first I had this, and after the update it stopped working: "mail": { "from": "'xxxxx' <xxxx@xxxx.xxx>", "transport": "SMTP", "options": { "host": "smtp.mandrillapp.com", "service": "Mandrill", "port"…

[image] Iain_London: "mail": { "from": "'xxxxx' <xxxx@xxxx.xxx>", "transport": "SMTP", "options": { "host": "smtp.mandrillapp.com", "service": "Mandrill", "port": "587", "secure": true, "auth": { "user": "XXXX", …

Sounds like something strange is going on there. What is the error message you get?

"auth": { "user": "postmaster@your_domain.com", "pass": "your_password" } The "user" and "pass", are those from the Mailgun account or Ghost admin account?

They’re the credentials for whatever is specified in "host". Eg. Mailgun or Mandrill.

The error message is: Failed to send email. Reason: 140371041437568:error:1408F10B:SSL routines:ssl3_get_record:wrong version number:../deps/openssl/openssl/ssl/record/ssl3_record.c:332:

We’ve had something similar after the latest upgrade; while mailgun appears to be working, “local” mails to staff were failing; this was traced to Ghost rejecting the self-signed certificate of the local postfix installation (aka doing something against the norm - self-signed certificates are normal…

This is the correct answer, and the documentation is incorrect.
