Thanks, I didn't know/remember of such a feature. They said:

"smtp_use_ssl" is not a mailer.py configuration knob.

You are right. I took that setting from a site:

# added by jmss
# http://sadomovalex.blogspot.pt/2009/12/use-gmail-smtp-server-for-post-commit.html
smtp_use_ssl = true

Previously, I could only send mails with that setting I took from the above blog. It may have become obsolete?

Try this patch, after configuring port 465 in the .conf file:

Index: mailer.py
===================================================================
--- mailer.py   (revision 1771121)
+++ mailer.py   (working copy)
@@ -291,7 +291,7 @@ class SMTPOutput(MailedOutput):

   def finish(self):

     if self.cfg.is_set('general.smtp_username'):
       server.login(self.cfg.general.smtp_username,
                    self.cfg.general.smtp_password)

It can't be committed as-is, but it might get your setup working.
(Modulo certificate verification defaults...)

https://docs.python.org/3/library/smtplib#smtplib.SMTP_SSL

mailer.py was a link to /usr/share/subversion/hook-scripts/mailer/mailer.py but I made a local copy and modified it according to your patch.

I was going to say it didn't work, but I forgot to change the port from 587 to 465.

After changing the port to 465 it worked.

So, what is the correct/official way to solve this?

Thanks.
