Hm. This seems incorrect? Re: weblate user can not send e-mail using `mail user@hostname` on the command line. And I imagine that is what would be used by python/django running as the weblate user?

So instead, I think we need to authenticate weblate user through the mail system?

For an example, here is a similar configuration using GMAIL settings: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31324005/django-1-8-sending-mail-using-gmail-smtp

But maybe I am wrong, in which case please explain how mail can be sent from the command line as weblate user, so I can debug where the problem is.

Hmm. I checked, and I _think_ a configuration option for localhost relaying was missing. Now that I've set this, I can do:

# telnet localhost 25
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 gv.taler.net ESMTP Postfix
HELO localhost
250 gv.taler.net
MAIL From: grothoff@taler.net
250 2.1.0 Ok
RCPT To: grothoff@gnunet.org
250 2.1.5 Ok
DATA
354 End data with <CR><LF>.<CR><LF>
hello
.
250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as 4C50131C0276
quit
221 2.0.0 Bye
Connection closed by foreign host.

So it should work now.

Interesting. I'm not sure that weblate's "localhost" function will work that way but maybe. I assumed it would look for a `mail` function locally, that seems common.

Anyway sending an e-mail to myself using that method from weblate user failed. No errors - just didn't receive the e-mail. Message was "250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as 6F52531C0016" Time: 4:24UTC in case you want to check logs.

Cancel that request. The e-mail came though eventually.
