Test Email in SST

Post by mydogboris »

I do have one request... in SST for SMTP Email Configuration could you put a button for "send test email"?   Makes it much easier to verify settings when setting up.

Your timing is unbelievable. First of all, this is a great suggestion. Secondly, in NEMS 1.4.1 and before, this would not have been possible (it would have meant giving the www-data user access to scripts that it otherwise should not have access to - a potential security exploit). However, with NEMS 1.5's notification system having been completely re-written, the underlying backend is powered by PHPMailer - which means I can easily write nems-mailtest directly into nems-www. EXCELLENT!

I'll make it happen in NEMS 1.5. Thanks for the great suggestion.
