Setting up email for nodebb -
AWS SES - Test Email Works, New User registration email doesn't workWhat test email are you sending? Try different ones, some fail silently

Setting up email for nodebb@julian I think we can reasonably assume that Zoho takes care of DKIM and SPF.
@eeeee what test email are you sending? Some will fail silently, so try a few different ones to see if that makes a difference.
Check your NodeBB logs to see if there are any errors recently logged.
You might also want to try setting a custom SMTP with the settings Zoho suggests. You also need to use an application specific password if you're using 2FA for Zoho.

So yes, it only supports an older version. If you buy NodeBB's hosted solution, we can perform the upgrade for you. Contact [email protected]

Need Assistance Configuring SMTP for Email Notifications in NodeBBI think this is a spam post (I just edited it remove a hidden link). If not:
Any SMTP error should be reported to you when you send a test email. At the very least, they should show up in the logs.
What version of NodeBB are you using?
What SMTP server are you targeting (if you don't mind sharing)?

Do you have limited or full access to your host?@eeeee said in Do you have limited or full access to your host?:
I did have this conversation previously with @phenomlab, and I recall we were looking at around $40 a month upwards for a dedicated host
If you're fine with Oracle and willing to ensure there is some constant load on your server (from my experience just running Mongo+Redis with some cache for NodeBB will do fine for their usage detection), Oracle Cloud Infrastructure is still waving a huge free tier carrot in the form of 4 ARM64 cores w/24GB of RAM w/200GB total disk space (you can distribute these across up to 4VMs)
Otherwise - Hetzner has a great offer. NodeBB deployments are mostly RAM-bound, so I'd personally go for ARM here too - since NodeBB doesn't really have any x86-specific dependencies (also, if you want to save a buck, or rather €0.60, you can put an IPv6-only server behind Cloudflare and get IPv4 connectivity for free ).
You really don't need dedicated unless you really have a lot of users - it may be worth it if you want to host many services (since you can run your own VMs there) or if you actually need a full CPU-worth of performance, but again - the heaviest part of NodeBB is typically the database (and maybe caches), you're almost certainly not using that much processing power to serve a forum
(As for the experience topic, I'm not sure if I can really comment when I'm still in my early 20s, below the lowest concrete number thrown here )

Amazon SES Using the Default Emailer PluginThe built-in email service is an SMTP emailer. So you'll need to set up SES via SMTP:
Using the Amazon SES SMTP interface to send email - Amazon Simple Email ServiceUsing the Amazon SES SMTP interface to send email - Amazon Simple Email Service
Send email through Amazon SES by using the SMTP interface.
(docs.aws.amazon.com)
I haven't used the SES preset, you may need to set custom SMTP settings manually instead.
(BTW, it's not a plugin, it's built into core)

Sendmail issues on a VPS with 2 instances of nodebbFirst off, I don't recommend using sendmail. It's very likely to be caught in spam filters.
How do you know that an email wasn't sent? Have you checked the mailbox on your server?
