Installation

To install this module, you need to have the server_environment module installed and properly configured.

Configuration

With this module installed, the incoming and outgoing mail servers are configured in the server_environment_files module (which is a module you should provide, see the documentation of server_environment for more information).

In the configuration file of each environment, you may first use the sections [outgoing_mail] and [incoming_mail] to configure the default values respectively for SMTP servers and the IMAP/POP servers.

Then for each server, you can define additional values or override the default values with a section named [outgoing_mail.resource_name] or [incoming_mail.resource_name] where «resource_name» is the name of the server.

Example of config file

[outgoing_mail]
smtp_host = smtp.myserver.com
smtp_port = 587
smtp_user =
smtp_pass =
smtp_encryption = ssl

[outgoing_mail.odoo_smtp_server1]
smtp_user = odoo
smtp_pass = odoo

[incoming_mail.odoo_pop_mail1]
server = mail.myserver.com
port = 110
type = pop
is_ssl = 0
attach = 0
original = 0
user = odoo@myserver.com
password = uas1ohV0

You will need to create 2 records in the database, one outgoing mail server with the field name set to «odoo_smtp_server1» and one incoming mail server with the field name set to «odoo_pop_mail1».

Usage

Once configured, Odoo will read the mail servers values from the configuration file related to each environment defined in the main Odoo file.
