Question
Unable to send mail with Gitlab (Nginx, postfix installed)
Hi I have the basic configuration of gitlab (using sendmail) and I setted a postfix on my debian server.
I can send mail with command line but it doesn’t works with Gitlab. When it should send mail I never receive it. I also tried with google smtp and it doesnt work either.
Thanks for your help.

Please see https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/blob/master/README.md#emails-are-not-being-delivered
Thanks for your answear sytse but I didn’t find any fix on the link and I’m not using omnibus. I don’t have gitlab-ctl either. I isntalled all my gitlab following this tuto: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-gitlab-as-your-very-own-private-github-clone
I have the same problem with e-mail. I Installed GitLab manually using the tutorial and now I don’t have the gitlab-ctl CLI-tool.
xmax54, I found the solution to my problem - the file config/initializers/smtp_settings.rb.sample was overriding the delivery method to :smtp because of the line
if Rails.env.production?.Hey, I am curious, what did you do so that gitlab can send mails? I have the same problem. Should I delete the line you’d mentioned?
Thanks.
