Hi,
in my opinion problem occurs when I try to use external mail server (not
at localhost). Here is list of steps that I took:
1. I downloaded Zanata serwer from here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/zanata/files/server/zanata-server.zip/download
2. I saw that there is no WAR file inside 'deployment' directory, so I
downloaded WAR file from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/zanata/files/webapp/ and inserted this
into 'deployment' directory.
3. Than I changed configuration in standalone.xml:
3.1. I changed SMTP configuration to:
<outbound-socket-binding name="mail-smtp">
<remote-destination host="remote.smtp.host" port="25"/>
</outbound-socket-binding>
and added bindings:
<simple
name="java:global/zanata/security/auth-policy-names/internal"
value="zanata.internal"/>
<simple name="java:global/zanata/security/admin-users"
value="admin"/>
<simple
name="java:global/zanata/files/document-storage-directory"
value="${user.home}/zanata/files"/>
<simple
name="java:global/zanata/email/default-from-address"
value="no-reply at mydomain.com"/>
4. I also configured mysql connection in zanata-ds.xml
After that I started server and tried to register new user. But I
received error: Could not connect to SMTP host: localhost, port: 25;
So Zanata is trying to use smtp at localhost instead of that configured
in standalone.xml.
After that I installed smtp server at my localhost and Zanata started to
send emails.
5. Next, I added:
<simple name="java:global/zanata/smtp/host" value="remoteHost" />
<simple name="java:global/zanata/smtp/port" value="25" />
<simple name="java:global/zanata/smtp/username" value="username" />
<simple name="java:global/zanata/smtp/password" value="pass" />
<simple name="java:global/zanata/smtp/tls" value="false" />
<simple name="java:global/zanata/smtp/ssl" value="false" />
and at registration process I received:
javax.mail.NoSuchProviderException: No provider for smtp
So, from my point of view, every thing work correct when You have your
SMTP server installed at localhost only. For the remote SMTP servers
Zanata is not able to use this server.

Pawel Wozniak

> Sorry I was wrong about the configuration. That wiki page I pointed you in my first reply (using "java:jboss/mail/Default") will only apply to latest zanata war which has not been released yet. So your later configuration (with "<simple name="java:global/zanata/smtp/host" ...") is correct. I have tested with zanata version 3.5.1 and the server.zip both downloaded from http://zanata.org/download/. It works out of the box for me. Note that I only have below jndi bindings:
> <simple name="java:global/zanata/security/auth-policy-names/internal" value="zanata.internal"/>
> <simple name="java:global/zanata/security/admin-users" value="admin"/>
> <simple name="java:global/zanata/files/document-storage-directory" value="${user.home}/zanata/files"/>
> <simple name="java:global/zanata/email/default-from-address" value="no-reply at mydomain.com"/>
