I'm trying to set a cron-job for sending mail attachments from my cpanel server. I found that Mutt is a great option. However, I'm having difficulty due to this one error that keeps occurring again and again.
Whenever I try sending a mail I get this:
SASL authentication failed.
Could not send the message.
The following is my .muttrc file.
set from = [email protected]
set realname = "NAME"
#set smtp_url = smtp://[email protected]:587/
set smtp_url = "smtps://[email protected]:465/"
set smtp_pass = PASS
set imap_user = [email protected]
set imap_pass = PASS
set folder = imaps://imap.gmail.com:993
set spoolfile = imaps://imap.gmail.com/INBOX
set header_cache = ~/.mutt/cache/headers
set message_cachedir = ~/.mutt/cache/bodies
set certificate_file = ~/.mutt/certificates
# Etc
set mail_check = 100
set move = no
set imap_keepalive = 900
set sort = threads
set editor = "vim"
#source ~/.mutt/gpg.rc
set ssl_starttls=no
set ssl_force_tls=yes
set smtp_authenticators = "login"
set ssl_verify_host = no
set ssl_verify_dates = no
This may take a long time (probably won't be solvable) and there might not be many people with this problem. But I feel that this thread might help others in the future
I've installed gnutils-bin and openssl
which gnutls-bin
/usr/bin/which: no gnutls-bin in (/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/lib/path-bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/sbin:/opt/cpanel/composer/bin:/usr/local/python3.6/bin:/usr/local/bin:/home/covid/.local/bin:/home/USERNAME/bin)
which openssl
