Bugzilla not sending emails, even to the test file?

Question

I have installed and setup Bugzilla3 for my domain. Everything is working properly except for the email functionality.

The server uses Postfix, and that works for my PHP application, and command line.

In Bugzilla, I have tried setting the mail_delivery_method to 'test', and nothing shows up in data/mailer.testfile, it is completely blank...

I have no idea where to go from here, any ideas on what to try next?

Solution

Check you have given a valid email address in "mailfrom" parameter.

I also have this similar issue, after I gave a valid email address it worked fine.

Additional Information:

I have installed postfix in my system and selected "Sendmail" in mail_delivery_method.

Look into the log files. What's there?

Absolutely nothing, zilch, nada. The mail.log files shows no activity, and the data/mailer.testfile still contains nothing (even though the purpose of the file is to display Bugzilla 'test' emails).

So then I would file a bug in the bugzilla of bugzilla.

Yes I file bugs, and change them to try and generate some emails, does not work.

1. Check the status of jobs in queue: /etc/init.d/bugzilla.queue 2. fire, tail -f /var/log/maillog

Version 3.something. I have it set to send mail, and when I edit/change bugs it tells me its sending an email to my address. Even on testing though it doesn't show anything in the test file... I will test the password reset and get back to you.
