E-Mail SMTP Port

[sdw99]

Having a bit of an issue getting e-mail to send, I've updated Advanced > Default Settings > Email Queue > smtp_port to 587 as needed and gone so far as to restart Freeswitch; however, it's still attempt to connect to the mail server (AWS SES in this case) using port 25. Any suggestions?

You do this in Email, not in Email Queue
Does your SMTP Supports SSL?
If yesh What port Number?
Have you setup in Advanced > Default Settings > Email > smtp_secure

Hi @mcs3ss2...

Yes, I realize that...I was just using Status > Email Queue to send a test message.

As I mentioned, I'm using AWS SES as the MTA, which requires TLS. E-mail settings are below. After a few hours, it started working. As part of my testing, I change the SMTP port again, however, it continued to use port 587. It seems as though however the mailer works, there's some amount of log between setting the SMTP port in the web UI and that port actually being used...

Just change smtp_secure value from tls to ssl
it worked for me years ago when I first set one up.
