Under Windows, I have no problem sending emails from my web2py app. I import gluon.tools.Mail and perform a send to the server 'smtp.broadband.rogers.com:25'. Easy peasy.
However, under Linux, it just doesn't work. The Mail send operation always fails. If the error is being logged, I don't know where the log file is. It seems to me that, under Linux, web2py installs Postfix. I presume it's used for sending emails. When I ran setup-web2py-ubuntu.sh, I was asked for a server name. I entered 'smtp.broadband.rogers.com'. I don't know if this was a mistake. Can anybody shed any light on this? Thanks, Richard
