I have configured in Katalon Studio the mail-settings as described in the example/documentation and I can send a test email just fine.
But when I execute my tests through the docker container (Docker ) I get the following message:
System is unable to email report. Reason: org.apache.commons.mail.EmailException: Sending the email to the following server failed : mailhub.harvard.edu:25

it looks like it is trying to use port 25. Again my config is set to the correct port and the Katalon Studio GUI sends a test email just fine.
Hey Greg
Yep. It’s annoying. It seems sometimes 587 “takes” and others it just ignores it.
I gave up and used SendEmail downloaded from here: http://caspian.dotconf.net/menu/Software/SendEmail/
You can provide your initialization settings in a batch file and call the batch from Groovy.
My batch file looks something like…
c:\path-to-sendemail\sendemail -f me@somewhere.com -t other.person@somewhere.com me@somewhere.com -u %3 -s your.email.server.com:587 -xu user@somewhere.com -xp "password" -o tls=yes -o message-content-type=html -o message-file=%1 -a %2
%1, %2 and %3 are the report file name, screenshot file and subject line, etc.
that’s a great idea! I’ll add it to the growing list of thing to work on.
It is definitely something related directly to my machine and the docker network bridging. When I re-enabled the bridging the emailing worked fine.
