Hi All,

I am in the process of email configuration for redmine. i am following this How to Link . HowTo_configure_Redmine_to_mail_to_MS_Exchange_server. but, the "Test mail" is throwing an error message " An error occurred while sending mail (end of file reached) ". My configuration.yml is 

production:
  delivery_method: :smtp
  smtp_settings:
    address: Mail_Box_Address
    port: 25

i am able to ping my Mail_Box_Address.

Redmine Version is : 1.1.1 (2011-01-30)

Guys, please help me out .

Try this:

production:
  delivery_method: :smtp
  smtp_settings:
    address: "my.mailserver.com" 
    port: 25
    domain: "mycompany.com"

Hi Mr Ivan, Thanks for the reply.

I Did tried the above step by adding the domain name, but still the same error has been observed.

Any other way of getting rid of this error?

Thanks in advance .

This is my configuration. I had missed the domain: line and it didn't work. Then I added the domain: line and it began to work.
Did you put quotes around the address and domain names (" ... ") ?

No, i Didn't included any quotes for the domain names and address.
What should be the domain name ? is it the company name or the exchange server name ?

is this stuff anything to do with proxy settings ?

Then include quotes.
This way:

production:
  delivery_method: :smtp
  smtp_settings:
    address: "my.mailserver.com" 
    port: 25
    domain: "mycompany.com"
and not this way:
production:
  delivery_method: :smtp
  smtp_settings:
    address: my.mailserver.com
    port: 25
    domain: mycompany.com
The first variant works for me. I didn't tried the second one.

In our configuration, this is the account name of our company with our ISP provider that maintains our mailboxes.
You may want to talk with your admin about your configuration.

Adding the double quotes worked for me. Thanks.

I had the same problem, I had checked the configuration.yml file, checked for indentations, added both quotes (single and double) -> none worked. Some mails had been sent, some werent. Then i found on the Internet an advice -> Check your mail server. Because my mail server is handled by system administrator, i said him to check whether it has errors. He had fixed it, said that problem were in mail migration. Hope this helps someone!
