Pg 295 email

send failed
“Error: connect ENETUNREACH 2a00:1450:400c:c0c::6d:465 – Local (:::0)”
I read a lot and it seem to be a problem with IPv4 or IPv6 (IPv6 is desabled by Raspbien I have been told)
but what is preventing my email tom go out?
Please help

Hi.
 
I just tested everything in a new installation (one week old) and everything is working as expected on my side.
Just to rule some things out… did you follow all the steps in the eBook? For example, are you running the recommended Raspberry Pi OS 64-bit? Or did you start with an old installation?
Did you install Node-RED as explained in the eBook?
 
I read something about that IPv6 issue on forums, but I’m not sure exactly what’s causing the issue.
Some suggestions of things you can try to see if the issue is solved:

  • simply reboot the Raspberry Pi
  • uninstall the email nodes, reboot the Pi, install the Nodes again
  • try this suggestion: https://discourse.nodered.org/t/sending-email-error-can-not-use-ipv4-addresses-with-current-network/67598/17

Let me know if this helps.
 
Regards,
Sara
