We are currently (8/2024) using forwardemail.net for email routing using Björn's account.
All incoming email routing is set via that account in forwardemail.net's web interface.
Currently we have the following routes:
| route | receiver |
|---|---|
| * (catch all) | galaxy at informatik.uni-freiburg.de |
| contact | galaxy at informatik.uni-freiburg.de |
| bugs | galaxy at informatik.uni-freiburg.de |
| security | galaxy-ops at informatik.uni-freiburg.de |
| admin | galaxy-ops at informatik.uni-freiburg.de |
However, bug reports are sent by Galaxy automatically to galaxy-no-reply at informatik.uni-freiburg.de
If you want to send email with one of those aliases, you need to can add them to thunderbird following this guide in English or this guide in German. Using the following settings:
| Field | Setting |
|---|---|
| Name | Your Name |
| <alias>@usegalaxy.eu | |
| Reply address | <alias>@usegalaxy.eu |
| Server Name | smtp.forwardemail.net |
| Port | 465 |
| Connection security | SSL/TLS |
| Authentication method | Normal password |
| User name | <alias>@usegalaxy.eu |
The password is asked when you send the first email.
You find it in the vault in infrastructure-playbook. To view it, you need to clone the repo, install ansible, create a file in the repo's directory named vault_password.txt and insert the password you get from e.g. Björn. Then you can run ansible-vault view secret_group_vars/mail.md.
Ask one of the admins for the password.:wink:
