I’ve set up SMTP but receive no registration email. I see the following in my docker-compose output:

Are these errors related? What do they mean? I see these errors when I try to register a new account.

I should note that I get no errors from the web interface. It indicates that the email was sent, but from my SMTP providers interface I never see the email come through. So the email never even gets to my SMTP server!

I've tried with and without TLS on ports 25 and 587. I'm using MailGun if that makes a difference.

I just want to add, thanks for you help @albogdano! I know we didn’t “solve” the problem, but at least it wasn’t a bug! I appreciate the time you spent helping me find a solution!

So, I still can’t say what happened. But I solved the issue by abandoning the docker-compose file. Instead I created the para and scoold containers directly from docker, and put them on a shared docker network. I configured scoold to talk to para over this network and followed the instructions I wrote above and everything is working! In the end email was a big red herring and the issue was problematic communication between para and scoold.
