Managing email in TeamForge

Questions about managing email in TeamForge.

• How do I configure TeamForge to send mail on a specific network adapter in a multi-NIC configuration?
  When a host has multiple NICs, James will try to do the right thing when sending mail. In some network setups, this is not correct, and manual configuration is needed.
• How can I check if port 25 is open?
  If you know the mail server is up and running, check whether you can talk over port 25 to your mail server. This can be done using a one-line command: telnet <appserver name> 25 Substitute the <appserver name> with your own server.
• How do I set up a local alias via James?
  In situations where you need to obtain a SSL certificate for your domain, and your SSL certificate provider only permits you to use addresses related to your SourceForge domain, it may be necessary to generate an email alias from within SourceForge. Since there is currently no way to do this through the UI, you'll have to do it from the James administrative interface.
• How do I configure email notifications of Subversion commits in SourceForge 4.x?
  For SourceForge release 4.x, email notifications are not available via the web UI, and will require extra commit hook scripts to be installed.
• Does SourceForge support using /etc/aliases for local mail delivery?
  No, SourceForge uses the James SMTP server, which does not use the /etc/aliases file.
