**Checklist** I have read intro post: [About the Installation Issues category](https://community.passbolt.com/t/about-the-installation-issues-category/12) I have read the tutorials, help and searched for similar issues I provide relevant information about my server (component names and versions, etc.) I provide a copy of my logs and healthcheck I describe the steps I have taken to trouble shoot the problem I describe the steps on how to reproduce the issue So some of my emails are failing purely due to timeout/temporary errors with my SMTP provider, and I need to resend the failed emails. Is there some command I could run in order to force the sending of these emails? ---

Hello, Yes, you can try to run ```auto sudo su -s /bin/bash -c "/usr/share/php/passbolt/bin/cake sender" www-data ``` ---

The send\_tries in the email\_queue table in the database remain at 4, and no email is actually delivered (that was blocked earlier). The SMTP configuration works, as I have received the test email and various other emails.
