JBoss mail configuration
OpenKM is a J2EE application deployed in JBoss application server. Some parameters have a default configuration that fit common user requirements but others depends on specific user configuration.

For specific JBoss issues, visit http://jboss.org/community/docs/DOC-10376. |
OpenKM sometimes send mail to users (because they have subscribed a document or folder, for example) and you have to check that this mail configuration is correct. If you edit the file $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy/mail-service.xml:
$ vim $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy/mail-service.xml
You will see something like this:
<mbean code="org.jboss.mail.MailService" name="jboss:service=OpenKM">
<attribute name="JNDIName">java:/mail/OpenKM</attribute>
<attribute name="User">nobody</attribute>
<attribute name="Password">password</attribute>
<attribute name="Configuration">
<!-- A test configuration -->
<configuration>
<!-- Change to your mail server prototocol -->
<property name="mail.store.protocol" value="pop3"/>
<property name="mail.transport.protocol" value="smtp"/>
<!-- Change to the user who will receive mail -->
<property name="mail.user" value="nobody"/>
<!-- Change to the mail server -->
<property name="mail.pop3.host" value="pop3.your-domain.com "/>
<!-- Change to the SMTP gateway server -->
<property name="mail.smtp.host" value="smtp.your-domain.com "/>
<!-- The mail server port -->
<property name="mail.smtp.port" value="25"/>
<!-- Change to the address mail will be from -->
<property name="mail.from" value="noreply@your-domain.com"/>
<!-- Enable debugging output from the javamail classes -->
<property name="mail.debug" value="false"/>
</configuration>
</attribute>
<depends>jboss:service=Naming</depends>
</mbean>
Typically you only have to configure these parameters:
- mail.smtp.host: this is the host where is located your mail server. Can be localhost if you have a local mail server installed (like Postfix)
- mail.from: all the mails send by OpenKM will be from this mail. Can be in the form of noreply@your-domain.com.
But it depends on you own mail configuration. If you run intro troubles, set the parameter mail.debug to true and revise the JBoss log.
$ tail -f $JBOSS_HOME/server/default/log/server.log

Confguration for SMTP authentication
When we want to use a mail server via a secured SMTP with authentication we should some changes to mail-service.xml file (used an example using the SMTP server gmail.com).
<mbean code="org.jboss.mail.MailService" name="jboss:service=OpenKM">
<attribute name="JNDIName">java:/mail/OpenKM</attribute>
<attribute name="User">USUARIO</attribute>
<attribute name="Password">PASSWORD</attribute>
<attribute name="Configuration">
<!-- A test configuration -->
<configuration>
<!-- Change to your mail server prototocol -->
<property name="mail.store.protocol" value="pop3"/>
<property name="mail.transport.protocol" value="smtp"/>
<!-- Change to the user who will receive mail -->
<property name="mail.user" value="USUARIO@gmail.com"/>
<!-- Change to the mail server -->
<property name="mail.pop3.host" value="pop.gmail.com"/>
<!-- Change to the SMTP gateway server -->
<property name="mail.smtp.host" value="smtp.gmail.com"/>
<property name="mail.smtp.starttls.enable" value="true" />
<property name="mail.smtp.socketFactory.class" value="javax.net.ssl.SSLSocketFactory" />
<!-- The mail server port -->
<property name="mail.smtp.port" value="465"/>
<property name="mail.smtp.socketFactory.port" value="465" />
<!-- Change to the address mail will be from -->
<property name="mail.from" value="USUARIO@gmail.com"/>
<property name="mail.smtp.user" value="USUARIO@gmail.com"/>
<property name="mail.smtp.password" value="PASSWORD"/>
<property name="mail.smtp.auth" value="true"/>
<!-- Enable debugging output from the javamail classes -->
<property name="mail.debug" value="false"/>
</configuration>
</attribute>
<depends>jboss:service=Naming</depends>
</mbean>
