It appears as though there is a bug in the email confirmation plugin (unless Im missing something). I currently have grails.app.context = “/” set in Config.groovy — so basically my urls don’t include the webapp. However, the plugin is including the context in the confirmation URLs that it creates.

Hi there
Any update on the planned Email Confirmation Plugin screencast… I have been struggling with it — particularly the defined event handers in Bootstrap (emailConfirmationService.onConfirmation) don’t seem to be getting called..

Wanari -

Sorry no the plugin does not support this yet. We need to add a mechanism to supply the remote host info when calling sendMail. I will put it on the todo list.

Hi Marc

Thanks for the clarification and the answers!

For the question 1) i meant the scenario where the smtp configuration is available on a web view. The goal is to provide these settings to the end user/sysadmin for a later change (changed password, changed server name, etc.) without letting them mess with Config.groovy (and maybe without the need to restart webap too).

Hi Wanari -

Let me clarify – grails-mail is not “my” plugin, its an effort by Jeff Brown, Graeme Rocher and myself to just get some quick mail mechanisms together for Grails.

As for your questions:

1) I’m not sure what you mean by “mail sender configuration”. It is unusual for applications to send mail to multiple SMTP servers…

2) synchronous currently

This plugin is very interesting, many thanks for the contribution i think many people will adopt it, i have a few questions about it :

1- Is it possible to load mail sender configuration from database using GORM?

2- Is mail sending synchronous or asynchronous?
