The default transport is the same email transport we've been using for years. The alternatives are supplied by Koha Plugins implementing the new_email_transport() method. These transports have access to the Koha::SMTP::Server object, which also means they can take advantage of this new `smtp_servers.config` field to store additional configuration they might need. This change also comes with a Koha Plugin bundled with it. This plugin is fully operational and just replicates the current "Default" behaviour. It serves as a model from which to build your own Koha Plugins. Test plan: 0. Apply the patch and run "sudo koha-upgrade-schema kohadev" 1. perl /usr/share/koha/bin/devel/install_plugins.pl \ --include Koha::Plugin::Core::Email::Transport::SMTP::Basic 1. restart_all 2. Go to Administration > SMTP servers and click "New SMTP server" 3. Note a new field "Transport module:" which has options of "Default" and "Basic SMTP Email Transport" available in a select list. 4. Fill in the details however you like (ideally using a real functional SMTP server) 5. Click "Submit" 6. Note the "Transport module:" displaying under "Current default configuration" 7. Click on "Edit" next to your SMTP server 8. Change the "Transport module" and click "Submit" 9. Note that the module changes with the modification 10. If possible, try to send an email by going to a patron record (e.g. http://localhost:8081/cgi-bin/koha/members/notices.pl?borrowernumber=51) and clicking "More" and clicking "Send welcome notice" 11. As your Koha instance user (ie using koha-shell), run the following: perl /usr/share/koha/bin/cronjobs/process_message_queue.pl -v 12. If you have a valid SMTP server configured, it should send the email using your selected email transport module -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
