    Is there a way to allow Grist to email out?

    (In contrast to other Cloudron apps, there is no "Email" sidebar menu -- which I'm assuming means Grist is not able to email out?)

      Hello @superhua
      Currently, the grist app does not have smtp settings configured.
      We can add this with the next app update.

        Hello @superhua
        With https://forum.cloudron.io/post/125658 the Sendmail is configured by default.
        You can update your app and it should work right away.
        Happy to get feedback.

            Did something change with yesterday's update?

            I can trigger an email to be sent out by Grist, but our mail server is not showing any email actually being sent out.

              So you see anything in the web log viewer?

                There's a flurry of activity when I trigger an email.

                  Hello @superhua

                  @superhua said:

                  Does this imply it was working for you when I announced it and then after another update it is not working?
                  I was trying to reproduce this and was unable to.

                    Correct.

                    In addition, I'm now noticing that Grist has been switched to the Community Edition.

                    We were previously on the Full Grist (which allows automations).

                    Screenshot 2026-07-06 at 11.51.26.png

                    Perhaps that is why email stopped working?

                    Also, clicking "Switch to Full Grist" leads to a button that says "Restart Grist" -- but then restarting does nothing.

                      Hello @superhua
                      I have noticed that as well.
                      In the previous version this worked without issues.
                      The grist team even asked us to implement enterprise features again, what we did.
                      To have exactly that now breaking again is not nice.

                        Tracking this issue in this topic with a maintainer of Grist https://forum.cloudron.io/post/126499

                        Current solution, restore to Cloudron app version 1.2.3 which packages Grist version 1.7.15.
                        This version does not have the issue.
