I'm trying to setup our Mac Mini running OS X Server to send emails when Xcode Bots fail.
I've so far followed these guides to the letter:

This StackOverflow question says that he was able to get AWS SES to work with Mac OS X Server, so it's possible.
Anyone done it and can give me any pointers?
In the end I gave up and used Mutt. Setting up Postfix is a bitch. Mutt is awesome! It works great for solving this issue.
You can install it via Homebrew (\o/). Here's a guide for setting it up and using it. You can simply invoke mutt from your Xcode Bot triggers.
To use with AWS SES just make SES SMTP credentials in the AWS console and enter these in to the ~/.muttrc file.

I see the following error when trying to install my app in Teams for testing: "Valid domain cannot use tunnel site". I am using ngrok as described in the guide. So, I believe this is the reason for not being able to install the app. When I try to install it for a team, I see "Something went wrong." error and the app is not installed. Any thoughts on that?
I've resolved this issue by using this command.
ngrok.exe http -host-header=rewrite localhost:3979
I have my work email set up on an iPhone using the instructions given to me by my IT department. It works a treat.
I'd really like to be able to use in on my Mac. I have webmail (owa) access but it's a terrible webmail client. I use Airmail as my email client.
I've been reading online and I understand there are different issues with accessing Exchange email from a Mac, but I'm hoping they are surmountable.
The info from my IT people for iOS set up includes
My username
My password
A server - mobile.xxx.xxx.xx
A domain - live.xxxx.xxx.xx
I don't seem to be able to make any combination of these work for mac email setup.
Is there a solution?
Thanks
Try to enter username with the domain:
domain\username
username#domain.fullname.com
If nothing works, maybe you can ask your IT dept for help?
Also, your server administrator should check that EWS protocol is enabled for your mailbox (most MacOS clients works through this protocol)
We have installed a Bugzila 4.0 on Windows 7 Local Machine. After the installation we are not able to create any New Account as the New Account sends a email to the email id being provided for the user. So we installed Sendmail for Windows and configured bugzilla to use Sendmail for sending mails via bugzilla. Now whenever we are trying to send emails via bugzilla on new account creation we are getting below mentioned error:
"error when closing pipe to /usr/lib/sendmail.exe: Inappropriate I/O control operation"
Request you to please guide us if we are missing any configuration on Bugzilla or if there is any other workaround to send mail via bugzilla on local machine.
Thanks in Advance.

Are you using http://www.glob.com.au/sendmail/ ?
If answer is yes, I think you should also download and install: https://metacpan.org/pod/App::TLSMe
Try to run your checksetup.pl to see if need any other prerequisite.
I setup Xcode Bots, which is working successfully. However, despite setting email addresses to get notified when a build is successful or it fails, I do not receive any emails. Is there any additional SMTP setup I need to do hidden somewhere?
You probably need to configure the Mac OSX Server for sending e-mail.
The local server is located in the Server application under "Mail" in the left sidebar.
I recently changed to using Amazon SES and had to edit the Postfix SASL configuration manually. Edit SASL password file, run postmap, enable SASL/TLS in main.cf configuration file and finally restart Postfix.
This detailed description by Rojas helped me:

I recently was tasked with doing the same thing, setting up OSX Server for sending e-mail. What worked for me was setting up the postfix configuration manually as well but the link in the previous answer wasn't effective for me. what was effective was following this tutorial
http://blog.anupamsg.me/2012/02/14/enabling-postfix-for-outbound-relay-via-gmail-on-os-x-lion-11/
and there's also a follow up that shows details to what needs to change to get it to work on Mavericks and newer http://blog.anupamsg.me/2013/12/22/enabling-postfix-on-osx-as-a-relay-revisited/
I need to sent many e-mail for advertising.
I can use the command 'mail' to send plain text e-mail,but can't send html e-mail.
Is there such a software(for mac) which can send html e-mail through the mail server built on Mac os x?
you can try using apache James, its a fully functional email server, very easy to setup (as simple as unzip & run). ofcourse you need to have java installed first.
here is a link to the apache james site.
you can download the current stable version of the james server from here
