I just did an upgrade from eZ 3.8.1 to 3.8.6 and now it can no longer send emails! I keep getting these:

[ Dec 07 2006 07:41:56 ] [my.ip] eZSMTPTransport::sendMail():
Error sending SMTP mail: 5.0.0 Need MAIL before RCPT

I have checked my email configuration:

override/site.ini.append.php:

[MailSettings]
Transport=SMTP
TransportServer=my.smtp.server
TransportUser=myuser
TransportPassword=mypass
AdminEmail=me@mydomain.com
EmailSender=me@mydomain.com

I have verified that those settings are being used through the admin interface. The old site is running side by side and is sending emails with no problems. I have not changed my email configuration in the 3.8.6 version. What's happening?

Hello Christian

Perhaps your problem is related to bug introduced in 3.8.4 version in ezsmtptransport.php class. Take a look here: http://ez.no/content/view/full/110255

For newer info on the bug, see http://issues.ez.no/9030

Apparently not all url's are redirected properly to the new bug system.
