Currently MediaGoblin only has the option of using plain SMTP or SMTP over SSL (which has deprecated for some time now). Using STARTTLS is completely unsupported.

These changes address this issue by attempting to use the STARTTLS command after EHLO/HELO. By default it will carry on as normal if STARTTLS command is unavailable, this can be changed by setting email_smtp_force_tls in the config.

Before this can be considered for merging there are two things that need to be taken care of:

• Unit test - I have no idea how to change email_smtp_force_tls at runtime, so I can't test this config option in both states.
• Documentation - I can't see where email_smtp_* are documented. In particular, settings email_smtp_use_ssl and email_smtp_force_tls might confuse users

Patches can be found on the "starttls" branch of this git repo: ​https://gitorious.org/mediagoblin/mediagoblin-starttls/commits/starttls

Hi,

I think this is a Trac bug; maybe it simply needs an update, so I'm posting it here.

After signing up, users receive a link by mail, which takes them to the registration verification page, and automatically fills the token verification field. This field is incorrectly filled. For example, it would "foo?token=foo" instead of "foo".

Of course, the users can enter the token manually; but if they don't pay attention to the field's content, they'd just think the site is broken and move on.

Cheers.

When an image with a creation date in its exif data is requested it fails with the following error:

AttributeError: type object 'datetime.datetime' has no attribute 'datetime'

This is the result of removing import datetime in ​mixin.py with commit ​58a9475

In the parent commit from datetime import datetime was added, so the attached fix is trivial.
