Has anyone had success in sending out email notifications and patient portal credentials on Linux yet?

Hi Noscrodamus,

Greetings from Visolve…!

We have sent email notifications and have been successful with patient portal credentails too using Linux…

Please ensure the settings made with the smtp configurations are right in processing the email reminders.

Have attached the screenshot of setting we used to configure smtp.

Please get back if you have any further questions…

Thanks,

Thank you for the reply.
Unfortunately, it is still not working on my side.
What are you using on the backend and what version of openemr are you doing this on?
I believe I am using 4.2.1

Hi Noscrodamus,
We are using OpenEMR version 4.2.1 and 4.2.2.

Backend we use Linux (Centos 6.x and Ubuntu)

If your using Centos in your end, please check if ‘selinux’ is enabled and if its blocking the emails thorugh apache.

Thanks,

I meant any mail based applications - thunderbird etc.
SELinux is disabled. Still not working, is there anything other configuration I should be aware of?
