SMTP password is not settable

We are using TeamCity 2021.2. Our IT department has changes the password on our SMTP login account. It has a obvious difference in character quantity, so it is easy to see if it is updated.

When I update the SMTP password in the email notifier and hit the save key, the previous length password is shown. This occurs when the notifier is enabled or not.

When I enter the new password and hit test connection, it fails but still has the correct length of a password - I just do not think that it used it.

Any ideas?

Hello Alma,

I was able to replicate this: when you update the SMTP password an, it does indeed show the previous length password, but it saves the new password - I pressed Test connection after with correct/incorrect passwords and I have obtained the expected result. Although it might be confusing that it shows a different length after saving, it seems to be working correctly.

Can you please verify that this is the case for you?

Thank you,

Guilherme

It still didn't work for me but now I suspect there was something wrong with that smtp account. I was able to get it to work without the username and password. If TeamCity works for you, that confirms that my wonderful IT didn't setup my smtp account as I requested.
