I can't get the email settings to work. I'm running FHFS on Microsoft Server 2012 behind a linksys wireless router. I started off with it behind the firewall forwarding all the ports needed for the server (20/21/25/80/113). I could reach the web interface from the wan side but email wasn't working. I tried placing the server in the DMZ and turning off both the windows firewall and the firewall/filtering options on the linksys. Neither worked.


This is the error I recieve:

Error:
Apr 05 22:29:52 myservername Email.exe[1664]: ERROR => Connection attempt to localhost:4650 failed: IO::Socket::INET: connect: Unknown error

This are my settings:

Email "From" Name:                    G BRAT
Email "From" Address:                gbrat@gmail.com
Email "BCC" Address:                 (this field is blank)
Email Hostname:                        smtp.gmail.com:465
Email Username:                        gbrat@gmail.com
Email Password:                         ************

I can telnet to smtp.gmail.com 465 so i don't think its a port issue.

So disabling any and all firewalls does not solve the issue?

Next, go to services.msc to check and see if the STunnel service is even running.  If it's not, there's probably some sort of permissions error.  You're running FHFS 2.0.5 right?

I fixed this by going into the stunnel.conf and with notepad deleting the localhost: part. The only problem is when you restart the program it reverts the stunnel.conf back to the problem file. Any clue how to fix the config file from reverting back.

Not sure why that would fix the issue, but if it does then go into the file "configure-stunnel.tpl" and make your change there too.  That's the template that's used to rebuild the stunnel configuration when FHFS starts.
