I am using Plone 2.1 and Zope 2.8.4-final, python 2.3.5, Zwiki 0.46.0 I am not having any luck getting mail-out working. The subscribe button won't appear on my zwiki and I am out of ideas as to why. I've uninstalled and reinstalled zwiki, deleted and remade the mail_replyto property, deleted and remade the MailHost object...people can get their passwords emailed to them when they sign up so I know MailHost is configured properly. I have read HowToSetUpMailOut on zwiki.org and it seems so simple. I successfully set this up once on a clients Zwiki but no longer have access to that system to look for differences. Am I missing something here? Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.

Ok, with some help from d2m on IRC (thanks d2m!) I have figured this out: I have a 'Secure Mail Host' and not a 'Mail Host' or 'Maildrop Host' which are the only two things ZWiki checks for. This would seem to be a bug or at least a deficiency in ZWiki. I simply added 'Secure Mail Host' to line 600 of Mail.py in the ZWiki product and it works. I was temporarily confused and confounded by zope re-creating the Mail.pyc file containing the old code (lesson: edit your code, then remove the .pyc file, not the other way around) when I didn't expect it to but now everything works fine. Now to go back to figuring out why my workflow doesn't work...
Thanks Tracy, I'll include that in the next release. If you find more problems consider reporting at http://zwiki.org/IssueTracker as well so we don't miss it. -Simon
