Anonymous SMTP Authentication
Posted: Fri Sep 09, 2022 3:24 pm
After upgrading Hesk to 3.3.2, which uses PHPMailer, anonymous authentication to our SMTP server no longer works. I managed to work around it by changing the following code:
to "false" in inc/email_functions.inc.php.
However, I imagine future updates may revert this code, and I was thinking it would be useful if "anonymous authentication" could be a toggle in the Email settings in the UI. It would then be a variable in the email_functions.inc.php file and wouldn't get overwritten when upgrading. I'm not sure if this is the place to submit suggestions like this, but I couldn't really find anywhere else.
Code: Select all
$mailer->SMTPAuth = true;
