Hi Alex, although I am having issues with the SMTPAppender myself (as you noticed - http://jira.qos.ch/browse/LBCLASSIC-323), you may be facing something else here. In your example, it seems the log event that you wish to trigger the e-mail with ("SmtpTest - Hello World") has the level "INFO". Please note (quote from the docs): "By default, the email transmission is triggered by a logging event of level ERROR. " Log it as an error and see what happens. If you wish to trigger mail for INFO events, you need to provide a different "EventEvaluator". Go to http://logback.qos.ch/manual/appenders.html and search for the section with the headline "Triggering event" for details.

I'm trying to use SMTPAppender to send a log message through gmail. I have added javax.mail:mailapi:1.4.3 as a depdendency. I also tried adding javax.activation:activation:1.1.1 with no success. If I change the host to xyz, it has no affect. This is my configuration file:
<configuration debug="true"> <appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender"> <encoder> <pattern> %-4relative [out] %-5level %logger - %msg%n </pattern> </encoder> </appender>
<appender name="EMAIL" class="ch.qos.logback.classic.net.SMTPAppender"> <smtpHost>smtp.gmail.com</smtpHost> <smtpPort>465</smtpPort> <SSL>true</SSL> <username>somebody@gmail.com</username> <password>somepass</password> <to>someone@gmail.com</to> <from>somebody@gmail.com</from> <subject>Testing %logger{20} - %m</subject>
<layout class="ch.qos.logback.classic.PatternLayout"> <pattern>%d{HH:mm:ss.SSS} [%thread] %-5level %logger{1} - %msg%n</pattern> </layout> </appender>
<root level="info"> <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" /> <appender-ref ref="EMAIL" /> </root> </configuration>
