I don't think that is the problem. I can send test emails from Jenkins using the "Test configuration by sending test e-mail" setting under the global setting for E-mail Notification. And I can also send emails from the machine without authentication using the mailx command:
mailx -s "Testing 1,2,3" -S smtp=smtp://smtp.ourcompany.com:25 < test.txt Where the smtp.ourcompany.com address is the same address configured in jenkins. Finally, we have had emails work in the past. The problems have all come after upgrading Jenkins and various plugins in order to be able to use Git, which was not supported on the ancient version of Jenkins that we were previously using. Even after the upgrade, we were able to have some mails delivered, albeit there were other problems.
