Thank you very much!

I know that, but what i need to configure here?

ENABLED = true
HOST    = smtp.gmail.com
FROM    = xxx@gmail.com
USER    = xxx@gmail.com
PASSWD  = ......

if the default setting for gitea mailing unencrypted, so i need to add some parameters? (What are the default connection options?)

Regards, Jan

smtp.gmail.com:587 does not work, as described here: https://github.com/gogs/gogs/issues/4310

Then i will look on that manual..

Maybe i need to restart gitea service first before the new config will be applied...(?)

How can i use SSL instead if TLS with Google Mail Server smtp.gmail.com:465 ?

Can't see any options to switch to SSL here: https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/config-cheat-sheet/

Now it works, thx, i added a few paramters then i restarted the gitea service:

ENABLED        = true
HOST           = smtp.gmail.com:587
FROM           = xxx@gmail.com
USER           = xxx@gmail.com
PASSWD         = ......

MAILER_TYPE    = smtp

IS_TLS_ENABLED = true

Have a nice day, thx again!! :-)

Perhaps it would be interesting to add this to the docs as a sample GMail configuration?

Why not, i think GMail server will used a lot...

But i'm not 100% sure the "MAILER_TYPE" parameter is required or not. Maybe it's not. (?)

"IS_TLS_ENABLED" seems to be required, it was not working without it..

I was not able to use TLS with gmail.. it would fail every time.

However, using port 465 worked for me without TLS..

[mailer]
ENABLED = true
HOST    = smtp.gmail.com:465
FROM    = *********.server@gmail.com
USER    = **********.server@gmail.com
PASSWD  = **************
MAILER_TYPE    = smtp
IS_TLS_ENABLED = false
