In https://lists.opendaylight.org/pipermail/tsc/2018-May/009548.html dfarrell07 suggested:
I'm all for e.g. sending From: bot-noreply@opendaylight.org - ok? But as far as I know, due to now widely deployed anti spam mesaures, things in the good old land of emails have moved on considerably since I used to prank fellow students with fake From and Date at university via un-authenticated un-verified SMTP... for example Gmail's SMTP will only accept From: gmail accounts - as far as a I know. zxiiro which SMTP server shall we use to use such emails from - is there one at the LF? Do we need to create a dedicated email account (with password) to let such a SMTP server accept bulk email? PS: See also RELENG-109 for another (separate) 2nd bot email alias discussion. |

I'm not aware of a public facing LF smtp server for this (we use gmail internally). Our Jenkins servers just use the Java mailer that's built into Jenkins we don't do anything special but it mainly emails mailing lists rather than gmail addresses so probably why we haven't hit issues with that. You can try using bot-noreply@opendaylight.org and see if it breaks, or create a opendaylight-bot@gmail.com address and send it as opendaylight-bot+noreply@gmail.com. |
