Email-Ext 2.73 Not allowing to change SMTP port number

XMLWordPrintable

    • 2.75

      Hello,

      I am using Jenkins version 2.235.2 on Windows server 2019. I was using the email-ext-plugin version 2.68 and was using it to send emails.  I upgraded to version 2.73 and now I cant change the SMTP port number to something else besides 25. Hence, emails are not being sent out anymore. Steps to reproduce:

      1. Click on Manage Jenkins -> Configuration
      2. Under the header “Extended E-mail Notification”, Change the value of SMTP Port to 465
      3. Save your changes and exit
      4. Click on Manage Jenkins -> configuration
      5. Under the header “Extended E-mail Notification”, the value of SMTP Port is still showing 25

       I was trying to set this number to 465 since I am using Gmail.

      In addition to that, email-ext-plugin version 2.73 is now showing the SMTP Password in plain text. It used to be all *** previously. I am not sure if this is a major issue, but might be a security risk.  I have attached screen shots

          Thanks for filing this, I'll look into it. You can downgrade to 2.71 to go back before the changes that caused the issue.

          I have a fix, but won't be able to release it until Friday of this week. Please continue using 2.71 until then.
