Description
Hello,
I have two FQDN added to my container via the "extra_hosts:" directive in my compose file.
plex.example.com
mail.example.com
When I use plex.example.com in the Plex section of the settings, it works like a charm.
When I use mail.example.com from the Notifications section of the settings, it doesn't work (read ECONNRESET).
But if I use the IP and tick the box "Allow Self-Signed Certificates" (IP is not in the certificate, so I have to check the box), the email is sent.
Version
3.2.0
Steps to Reproduce
- Add "extra_hosts:" to the compose and add a FQDN that points to a mail server.
- Use this FQDN in the Notifications section of the settings.
