Can't configure office365 SMTP on play mailer 5.0.0-M1 #98

HirenPatel2791 · 2016-03-30T14:27:51Z

I recently tried this plug in.. and was able to send mails using google smtp.. Now in the same application I'm trying to integrate my office365 mailbox and send emails out. for that I followed this

application.conf:

play.mailer {
  host = smtp.office365.com
  port = 587
  ssl = no
  tls = yes
  username = "hiren.***@*****.com"
  password = "******"
  debug = no
  timeout = 600
  connectiontimeout = 600
  mock = no
}

but throws an exception:

[error] application - Email Sending Exception :

The problem I could suspect is tls version which should be >=1.0 for office365. But don't know how to check it.
I tried hard to find solution but couldn't.
any hint will be helpful.. thanks

Have you tried to enable ssl ? I think the root cause is AuthenticationFailedException, are you sure about your credential ?

HirenPatel2791 · 2016-03-30T21:23:08Z

Thanks for getting back to me. If you see to office365 SMTP submission documentation, It is only tls enabled. so there is no way ssl gonna work. But I'll give it a try. well I implemented mailing service using javax.mail with same settings and its working fine so there is no error in my configurations.

mkurz · 2016-03-31T21:55:16Z

@HirenPatel2791 Did it work with enabling ssl?
If not - could you please provide your code which you use to send the mail via javax.mail?

ggrossetie · 2016-03-31T21:57:05Z

On a side note, I think it could be great to add the configuration for common mail provider like Gmail or Office 365 in the user manual: https://github.com/playframework/play-mailer/blob/master/user-manual.adoc

HirenPatel2791 · 2016-03-31T22:05:56Z

@mkurz no it didn't work with ssl as expected. I'll share my code:

play.Configuration cfg = Play.application().configuration();
String from = cfg.getString("myEmail.from");
Properties props = System.getProperties();
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.from",from);
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", cfg.getString("myEmail.host"));
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.port", cfg.getString("myEmail.port"));
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.auth", cfg.getString("myEmail.auth"));
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", cfg.getString("myEmail.tls"));

Session session = Session.getInstance(props, new Authenticator() {
  protected javax.mail.PasswordAuthentication getPasswordAuthentication() {
    return new javax.mail.PasswordAuthentication(cfg.getString("myEmail.user"),cfg.getString("myEmail.password") );
  }
});
try {
  // Create a default MimeMessage object.
  MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage(session);
  // Set From: header field of the header.
  message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
  // Set To: header field of the header.
  message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress(toEmail));
  // Set Subject: header field
  message.setSubject(emailSubject);
  // Now set the actual message
  message.setContent("Hi "+ fname + "," + emailBodyStringEnd, "text/html");
  // Send message
  Transport.send(message);
  System.out.println("Sent message successfully....");
} catch (MessagingException mex) {
  mex.printStackTrace();
}

this is config:

#mail config
myEmail.password = "***"
myEmail.user = "hiren.***@****.com"
myEmail.from = "****@*****.com"
myEmail.host = "smtp.office365.com"
myEmail.port = "587"
myEmail.auth = "true"
myEmail.tls = "true"

I'm using shared mailbox so user and from is different.

ggrossetie · 2016-04-10T15:43:13Z

Thanks for sharing. I will try to find the root cause.

ggrossetie · 2016-04-12T21:16:26Z

Sorry but I can't reproduce this issue.
Here's a working example with Play! 2.5.1 and Play mailer 5.0.0-M1:

val email = Email(
  "Hello",
  "[email protected]",
  Seq("[email protected]"),
  bodyText = Some("Hi Guillaume")
)
mailerClient.send(email)

play.mailer {
  host=smtp.office365.com
  port=587
  tls=true
  ssl=false
  user="[email protected]"
  password="********"
  from="[email protected]"
}

I also tried to use this configuration (similar to what you are using):

play.mailer {
  host=smtp.office365.com
  port=587
  tls=yes
  ssl=no
  debug=no
  mock=no
  user="[email protected]"
  password="********"
  from="[email protected]"
}

NOTE: timeout and connectiontimeout are in milliseconds. 0.6 second is a really short timeout and you should increase this timeout or use the default (ie. 60 seconds = 60000 milliseconds)

Your code is working as well, here's the Scala version:

val props = new Properties()
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.from", "[email protected]")
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.host", "smtp.office365.com")
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.port","587")
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.auth", "true")
props.setProperty("mail.smtp.starttls.enable", "true")

val session = javax.mail.Session.getInstance(props, new Authenticator {
    override def getPasswordAuthentication = new javax.mail.PasswordAuthentication("[email protected]","********")
})

val message = new MimeMessage(session)
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress("[email protected]"))
message.addRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO, new InternetAddress("[email protected]"))
message.setSubject("Hello")
message.setContent("Hi Guillaume", "text/html")
Transport.send(message)

I did try to use a different address between user and from but I'm not using a shared mailbox. In this case I get the following error: 550 5.7.60 SMTP; Client does not have permissions to send as this sender.

I would be curious to understand why this is not working. Could someone give it a try ? @mkurz are you using Office 365 ?

mkurz · 2016-04-12T21:22:35Z

@Mogztter No I am not using Office 365 right now. But I am working on a project for a client of mine and I think they use Office 365 AFAIK - so maybe I have to send out emails with this provider as well in the coming weeks. If I find out something I will let you know of course.

ggrossetie · 2016-04-12T21:55:42Z

@mkurz Ok great, thanks 😄

ggrossetie · 2016-07-23T11:58:06Z

Reading again this issue, I'm pretty sure the problem was a short timeout and connectiontimeout because the root cause is Caused by: java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timed out.

@HirenPatel2791 Do you find a solution ? Is it working now ?

adis-me · 2017-02-14T15:52:27Z

I can confirm it is working with Office365.com.

HirenPatel2791 · 2017-02-14T22:31:03Z

@adis-me can you share your solution.

mkurz · 2017-02-27T07:59:55Z

@HirenPatel2791 Is your antivirus blocking smtp requests? See #115

adis-me · 2017-02-27T08:16:11Z

@HirenPatel2791 My configuration looks like:

smtpConfiguration = new SMTPConfiguration(
                "smtp.office365.com",                               // host
                587,                                                // port
                Boolean.FALSE,                                      // ssl
                Boolean.TRUE,                                       // tls
                Option.apply("[email protected]"),                   // user
                Option.apply("VeryHardPassword"),                   // password
                Boolean.FALSE,                                      // debug
                Option.apply(60000),                                // timeout in ms
                Option.apply(60000),                                // connection timeout in ms
                Boolean.FALSE                                       // mock
        );

And then I send the mail:

Email email = new Email()
        .setSubject("Some subject")
        .setFrom("[email protected]")
        .addTo("[email protected]")
        .setBodyHtml(errorBuilder.toString());

// send mail
new SMTPMailer(smtpConfiguration).send(email);
