Title:
No timeout on sockets makes SMTP connections freeze
Status in OpenERP Server:
Confirmed
Bug description:
If you misconfigured your SMTP server (like STARTTLS in place of SSL
on port 465 as in my case) or your SMTP server is temporarily
unavailable, you'll never reach a timeout. This leads to all kind of
weird freezes (every action that triggers a ir_mail_server.connect()),
that can be for posting to groups, creating projects, etc. Hard to
find for laymen in any case.
Consider passing timeout=[something] to smtplib.SMTP{,_SSL} or call
socket.setdefaulttimeout([something]) in the initialization code.
