Sending emails from Spring Boot is as easy as possible.
spring:
mail:
host: <servername>
Plus some additional configuration and off you go.
We rely on an internal email provider that offers two mail servers. Instead of setting these up behind a load balancer, the consumer has to manage the failover itself.
So far, we have therefore only used one of the two servers via the Spring configuration mentioned above.
If this server has a problem, such as the current one where the TLS certificate has expired ♂️, the Rediness Check in Spring Actuator floods the log file with error messages.
Does anyone have a solution for using multiple mail servers to provide a fallback scenario?
