Is it possible to make Mantis send email in the background?

[kelvinlow]

Hello I'm new to Mantis.
When someone reporter a new issue,
Mantis will send notification email through Gmail to developers.
In my case, there are about 10 developers are going to receive notification.
Mantis send email after clicking the submit button, and let the reporter waiting.

This make reporters have bad user experience,
I hope there is solution to fix this problem.
It will be the better when email notifications are sent after issue submitted.
Or, is there any way to show the process of sending email?

Thank you!

Add the following line to file config_inc.php and setup a cron job

Code: Select all

$g_email_send_using_cronjob = ON;

From admin guide

$g_email_send_using_cronjob
Disables sending of emails as soon as an action is performed. Emails are instead queued and must be sent by running scripts/send_emails.php periodically. This script can only be executed from the CLI, not from the web interface, for security reasons.

Enabling this option can help with performance problems if large numbers of emails are generated or mail delivery is slow by not delaying page execution when sending emails.
