Different SMTP info for each journal

[netfunda]

I have many journals hosted on my server and I need different SMTP info for each journal.

As in default OJS I can use only one email address and related SMTP info:

Code: Select all

smtp = On
smtp_server = mail.domain.com
smtp_port = 25
smtp_auth = PLAIN
smtp_username = myuser@domain.com
smtp_password = xyz123abc


But I need something like:

Code: Select all

smtp = On
smtp_server_JOURNAL1 = mail.domain.com
smtp_port_JOURNAL1 = 25
smtp_auth_JOURNAL1 = PLAIN
smtp_username_JOURNAL1 = myuser@domain.com
smtp_password_JOURNAL1 = xyz123abc

smtp_server_JOURNAL2 = mail.domain.com
smtp_port_JOURNAL2 = 25
smtp_auth_JOURNAL2 = PLAIN
smtp_username_JOURNAL2 = myuser@domain.com
smtp_password_JOURNAL2 = xyz123abc


I understand I can use the above if I manage to modify: classes/mail/SMTPMailer.inc.php

Code: Select all

function SMTPMailer() {
      $this->server = Config::getVar('email', 'smtp_server');
      $this->port = Config::getVar('email', 'smtp_port');
      $this->auth = Config::getVar('email', 'smtp_auth');
      $this->username = Config::getVar('email', 'smtp_username');
      $this->password = Config::getVar('email', 'smtp_password');
      if (!$this->server)
         $this->server = 'localhost';
      if (!$this->port)
         $this->port = 25;
   }


Please help.

For me it also could be really useful. how did you managed this code? is it working there 100% ?

is there an alternative?

Is it possible? Ho do separated journals could send with different emails to the users / avaliators?

Hi netfunda,

If you needed this behaviour, you could modify the way config variables are fetched out of the config.inc.php file by doing something like this:

Code: Select all

$journal = $request->getJournal();
$this->server[$journal->getPath()] = Config::getVar('email', 'smtp_server[' . $journal->getPath() . ']');


And then store that information in your config.inc.php like this:

Code: Select all

smtp_server[JOURNALPATH] = mail.example.com


Where JOURNALPATH is the path component to your journal. This is untested code, but it should give you an idea.
