How to Setup Email Notification.

Hi everyone

Newbie here, Actually It was my first time setting up Red Mine. Below are my Redmine Details:

Redmine version                          2.1.0.stable
  Ruby version                             1.9.3 (i386-mingw32)
  Rails version                            3.2.8
  Environment                              production
  Database adapter                         SQLite

Installed on Windows Server 2008. I was wondering where and how would I setup/enable system email notification wherein the system will email the registered user's email address for notification.

Any reply is highly appreciated. Thank you!

First you have to configure e-mail in config/configuartion.yml. Something like this:

default:
  # Outgoing emails configuration (see examples above)
  email_delivery:
    delivery_method: :smtp
    smtp_settings:
      address: "mail.someserver.com" 
      port: 25
      domain: "ourcompany.com"

This depends how you are connected to the mail server and your configuration may differ from the example.
Then you have to make some tuning at http://redmine.yourcompany.com/settings, e-mail notifications.

You have to restart the server that is running Redmine. What is your server? In my case this is thin, working as Windows service. I restart Redmine by stopping and then starting thin service.
