Outgoing Email Server does not work on Community Edition when I tried it with Gmail as well as Outlook. It was always stuck on "Test Connection"; the loading was taking a long time just to return a timed out mesasge. However my free trial account does work well with the emails. I have tried installing another instance of Odoo Community Edition but to no avail. I have also tried all the solutions that the forum provides but non of them have solved my error.
I would apprieciate it if you have the same problem and have a solution to it.
Thanks for reading and best of luck!
issue is not with the odoo community edition. Please check your out going mail configured and their credentials. Also, make sure the mail server is enabled to handle third party applications, these configurations will be in your mail server settings.
