Jenkins email-ext plugin not sending mail

Question

I have Jenkins version 1.480.3 installed on my machine and Email-Extention Plugin 2.30.2.

Test mail from "Manage Jenkins" section works fine. When I add editable email notification to my jobs, I am not receiving it.

Also tried configuring "Triggers" in editable email notification advanced section. That also didn work. Console logs of build shows email has been triggered.

Can someone help me on how to debug this?

Answer 1

At first you have to create a template http://url-to-jenkins/emailexttemplates/. In the field "Project Recipient List" you can add some emails (comma separated). You can also insert global variables (Manage Jenkins > Configure System > Global properties) with:

${ENV, var="PATH"}

The "Advanced Settings..." option provides a trigger management, just add "Recipient List" and now you should get some emails by Jenkins.

Answer 2

It appears that, in some version Extended E-mail Notification become own SMTP Server configuration. So check your configuration under "Manage Jenkins" -> "Configure System" -> "Extended E-mail Notification" and make sure that fields "SMTP Server" and " Default user E-mail suffix" are filled properly.

Make sure also that the configuration is consistent with "Manage Jenkins" -> "Configure System" -> E-mail Notification.

TL;DR

Fill out fields "SMTP Server" and " Default user E-mail suffix" under "Manage Jenkins" -> "Configure System" -> "Extended E-mail Notification"

Answer 3

Downgrade the email-ext plugin to 2.25

Answer 4

Check if you have SSL enabled under SMTP Auth settings. For me, I was able to see a successful trigger, but email was never sent.

Answer 5

This is a long shot. But chrome was auto filling my SMTP Authentication password, so when I changed any setting and clicked save, the password would also be overwritten.

Hopefully I can save someone else a headache!

Answer 6

Wasted few days.

Also tried to Downgrade the email-ext plugin to 2.25 but this Doesn't help.

Test mail sended, In Console Log was Sending email to: mymail But stiil have no messages.

I found solution that help me....

I used gmail. So I Verifeid my gmail account via cellphone, than I fill Security Settings and gave Access to my account from unreliable sources.

Then I fill that mail into Use SMTP Authentication in Global Settings.

That worked for me :)
