Configure Email Notification

Navigate to {jenkins-server-url}/configure and scroll down to “E-mail Notification”.

Troubleshooting

• Unable to send mail through smtp.gmail.com

  SMTPAuthenticationError: Username and Password not accepted

  Solution: Go to https://myaccount.google.com/security and enable “Access for less secure apps”.(启用安全性较低的应用的访问权限)

• Unable to receive email

  Error sending to the following VALID addresses

  Received the email when manually trigger in the Jenkins, but failed in pipeline script.

  Solution:You should set SMTP Server and Authentication in both E-mail Notification and Extended E-mail Notification sections at “Jenkins’s URL” configure.
