NiFi PutEmail Error

avatar
Super Collaborator

Hi,

On my windows NiFi server , I am able to send unauthenticated emails using PutEmail processor by supplying SMTP Host name, Port 25 and user credentials. But in the email subject starts with UNVERIFIED SENDER.

but when I tried with port 587 which we are using for authenticated emails , I am getting the below error.

I am able to send emails using port 587 using PowerShell command. so i know the user has permissions to send emails on that port.

any ideas on how to solve this.???

All processors run under the context of user that is running Nifi. Check authentication for the user running Nifi.

First of all doublecheck all configurations (incl. password). Just to avoid moving in the right direction.

Secondly confirm that you do not need TLS enabled.

If these don't help, the following might help with troubleshooting:

1. Become nifi on the node where nifi is running

2. Send the message via Python

3. Share the python command here

Note: Please explicity specify all things that you configure in nify when executing python (even if they are not needed because of good defaults for instance).
