Describe the issue I would like to configure the SMTP Server to get alerts when a new devices logs in or to get the backups via email. It seems that there is no option to configure the email server in the .env file, so I thought that perhaps the native smtp server on the docker host is used. Looking at the traffic there is no traffic to port 25 visible. How could I get mail working?

Thanks for your help

I think it is far more complex than you think.

The process i guess is like that: for notification:

auth -(send email req)> SNS msg queue -(take email req) > some worker -(send email via aws sns) -> aws -> user

for backup:

auth -> backup req -> SNS/REDIS -> syncing worker -> dump db -> S3 Storage/ Local File System -> send email req ---> ** some worker** -> take file from S3/Local FS as attachment -(send email via aws sns) -> aws -> user

Since the middle part is not open sourced. you need to implementment some thing to get data from msg queue and then format the email template and then send email your self (via aws or smtp server or etc).

So can we provide an api for downloading zip, and we can realize the simple version of email sending by ourselves. Without this, it is really unsafe to use, because data backup is not only the original database data backup, but more directly included in the email data content of
