Email Comments?

I'm still trying to understand how to this to work.

I'm testing locally a fresh install of 2.3 trying to get an
 
understanding of how to get comments emailed to me.
I'm testing with the asual theme.

My html plugin chain map includes - meta, tag-cloud,
date-format,  
referer-log, calendar-gui, calendar-filter, comment,
trackback,  
limiter, macro-expansion, days-since-posted, word-count,
simple- 
obfuscation, nofollow, rss-enclosure, sendemail

My first need to understand is the entry in the web.xml:

         <init-param>
            
<param-name>smtp-server</param-name>
            
<param-value>localhost</param-value>
         </init-param>

Does the element "smtp-server" have to be
replaced with my "actual"  
smtp server?  i.e. smtp.west.cox.net?

What context do I need to add to my comment-vm to enable
sending email?

Thanks for any help?

--Samuel.

Yes, you'd change the <param-value/> tag to be the
server name:

  <param-value>smtp.west.cox.net</param-value>

If your SMTP server requires authentication, you'll need to
add a username
and password in init-param tags as well:

<init-param>
   
<param-name>smtp-server-username</param-name>
    <param-value>username</param-value>
</init-param>

<init-param>
   
<param-name>smtp-server-password</param-name>
    <param-value>password</param-value>
</init-param>

That should do it for you.

Nothing. E-mails are sent if the SMTP configuration is setup
properly.
