Failed to send notification email - Unrecognized authentication type

[mnl1121]

Upon first run I'm getting the following error. I searched and found other email failure errors, but not this one.

Failed to send notification email: 504 5.7.4 Unrecognized authentication type [DF4PR8401CA0017.NAMPRD84.PROD.OUTLOOK.COM]

Here are my container settings. I'm using my email in each of the email fields and the password is an app password. Not sure what's wrong.

docker run -d \
  --name watchtower \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
  -e WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATIONS=email \
  -e WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL_FROM=xxxxx \
  -e WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL_TO=xxxx \
  -e WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL_SERVER=smtp.office365.com \
  -e WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL_SERVER_PORT=587 \
  -e WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL_SERVER_USER=xxxxxx \
  -e WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL_SERVER_PASSWORD=xxxxxxx \
  v2tec/watchtower -i 43200

I'm having the same issue with smtp.office365.com too.

[mnl1121]

This issue still isn't resolved. Any ideas?

[Darkheir]

Maybe the porject should use an external email library instead of implementing a sendemail method on top of the SMTP lib.

This would allow to handle more email functionalities.

I have the same problem with WATCHTOWER_NOTIFICATION_EMAIL_SERVER=smtp.live.com

Notification emails work with Gmail, but not Outlook. Please add outlook support!

Unsure whether this is still an issue. Could someone please confirm? Thanks! 🙏

[simskij]

Closing due to lack of response.

[Hazy87]

Yes this is still an issue,

[mnl1121]

Can confirm. Still an issue.

Email handling will be reimplemented as part of the notification overhaul (#264).
I'm not gonna put any effort into solving this bug until that work is completed.

any update on this?

any update on this?
I've been using Gmail ever since and haven't tried outlook. Looks like the notification overhaul has been completed so Outlook may be working now? Have you given it a try?

[piksel]

None of the implemented authentication methods in the go stdlib email client are supported by outlook/office365. Tracked upstream in shoutrrr#334.

Thanks for the update! Any plan to implement?
