SABnzbd Forums

Technically speaking, this is really a minor bug, but if you don't know about this/is able to guess it, email configuration can be a real confusing thing.

To reproduce the issue do the following:

• Setup email notification against gmail or whatever in sabnzbd.
• Have a heartbleed bug, change your email account's password.
• Go to sabnzbd's notification configuration.
• Enter your new password under "Email account settings". DO NOT click save.
• Click "Test".

Observe that: Sending test-email will fail until you click "Save".

It's not obvious that you need to save before the config can be tested. Personally I expect "Test" allows me to verify that something works before saving.

Any chance getting this fixed?

Maybe, it goes into the todo list.

Thanks. Sounds good.

Not any deal killer by any means, but just thought I'd bring it up since I think that would improve an otherwise excellent product

Seeing as I now found the github issue list, any point resubmitting there?

And if I decide I have time to look into this myself, are there any strict requirements for pull-requests to be accepted? Any contributer guidelines I should be aware of or look into?

It would be great if you did this.
Please base your work on the 0.7.x branch.
