I haven't tried it since I don't use Gmail, but Koha has a file in misc/cronjobs called CONFIGURE.gmail that has some information about setting it up. On 11/22/21 4:26 AM, Chitti Babu B wrote:

If Koha is not throwing an error, it means the emails are being handed to the SMTP server listening in localhost:25 (i.e. your Postfix server). So you are asking about email delivery problems/Postfix configuration issues, not specifically Koha-side. My suggestion is you check the logs (/var/log/mail*) and also use some tool like mutt to check the root user inbox for bounces to get more information.

Hi Chitti Babu, Email will be pushed from Koha when enabled this facility, but some carrier is required to take your email from your koha system to external world, that is (internet or outside your local network), smtp. Postfix or some other mail transfer agent (mta) does this work. You need to configure postfix to do this activity. Please follow these steps for setting up a password for gmail as smtp (screenshots are attached, which is working for me). https://myaccount.google.com/security https://ibb.co/X3mDK9J https://ibb.co/PWWnK8R https://ibb.co/LZ1tm8H https://ibb.co/SP1dJv1 https://ibb.co/R7bgP34 Regards Satish MV Librarian Govt.Engineering College, Hassan Karnataka, India.
