Cannot configure email for VICIdial v10.0.1

I have installed and configured a VICIbox v.10.0.1 220503 instance.

SIP trunking, outbound / inbound are working correctly. However, I cannot find any way to configure email services. I would like voicemail to be delivered to the email address of the user.

yast does not show any email server / postfix installed. I cannot find any email configuration options in the admin interface either. I have downloaded and read the Manager manual but I can't find anything relevant, and it seems like it refers to options that I cannot see in the interface.

Any help would be appreciated!

try adding your email relay settings to the bottom on main.cf in /etc/postfix/

relayhost = [smtp.gmail.com]:587
smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtp_sasl_password_maps = lmdb:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd
smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtp_sasl_mechanism_filter = plain
smtp_use_tls = yes

Then add your email server ligin details to this file: /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd

[smtp.gmail.com]:587 youremail@gmail.com:password

I hope this helps

Thanks, it worked!

For anyone coming here in the future, you need to create an App Password for this to work, you can't just use your Gmail password anymore.
