Feliz Cumpleaños !!

We are new to all this, but I tried to translate some of the strings that where left on the Spanish language ^_^ I don't know how it works if someone has to approve them or not, but we are exited to help with the project.

@julian well I have this, which I just pulled from the git project and run npm install and after node app --setup also did the nodebb upgrade:

18/9 22:21 [3660] - info: Initializing NodeBB v0.8.2

and got this installed just now:

[email protected] node_modules\nodebb-plugin-pushbullet

ended up with the same error on MongoDB:

18/9 22:28 [2300] - info: NodeBB Ready
18/9 22:28 [2300] - info: NodeBB is now listening on: 0.0.0.0:4567

Update number 2!! It works!!!! the same setup looks like it works, at the end I left only the sendmail on the "C:\usr\sbin" folder and that mixed with running NodeBB as administrator.... looks like that was it for it to work, so... that's on a test server, will update again if all goes fine on the production server!

@atrius Thank you very much for the explanation, for the time being I'll avoid doing it the way I was pulling from Git, right now it's working and sending emails (with the local plugin which is what we actually needed), we'll be more careful when trying to update to the newer stable versions from now on.

Thank you again.

@Jam Yeah I can see this plugin getting some important usage for a lot of forums using NodeBB, including ours

Hi, maybe you can try what I did... it might help you https://community.nodebb.org/topic/8677/nodebb-plugin-emailer-local-configuration-or-usage-problems/13

@PitaJ

That sounds amazing, we're definitely waiting for this plugin, it looks awesome!!

Final update, it worked on the production server!! so now our forum is working properly sending emails the Linux way on a Windows Server OS, quite nice I would say, just as a side note our forum is actually really small in number of users, as it is an internal forum, so I can't assure this setup will work out to other forum's expectations or needs, also I would like to add that this shouldn't be the way to do it on Windows as it is kind of a weird way to handle it so in later versions it would be nice to see it reworked or polished for Windows environments (especially because it looks like the program used to simulate sendmail on Windows is no longer receiving maintenance).

@techabyte I can't tell you if it would work, what I can tell you is that it looks like the plugin itself is not necessary, you can just relay on sendmail to do the SMTP stuff.

@pichalite Thank you!!

Hi, does anyone knows which Skins work entirely with this Theme? some can't be use at all because of the colors.

Update here if anyone has any ideas.... I installed something that is like a fake sendmail for Windows (www.glob.com.au/sendmail/), I validated that I'm able to send emails through Office365 SMTP service and that the emails reach their destination by using this fake sendmail, but these test emails are sent through a CMD command using a template (sendmail -t < %TEMP%\temp.mail) and this sendmail.exe program and its .ini are located in "C:\usr\lib" and just to make sure I put it here as well "C:\usr\sbin" but anyways it just didn't work, NodeBB still outputs the message "Error spawn sendmail ENOENT"... does anyone have any ideas? I really need to send emails through Office365 and we can only deploy the forum on a Windows server.

@julian alright... I'll keep trying on my side to get this working, although I will suggest if you guys can come up with a way to simplify or standardize this setup at least for Windows because we can't be the only ones who need to send mails using smtp and having all infrastructure setup on Windows ... right ? thanks for all the help and I'll keep on setting this up!! by the way I'm trying to use this Sendmail version for windows:
