Setting up SMTP



To send emails from your own email address, you need to setup SMTP. You can find the sample SMTP settings for the well-known services below.


There are two ways of using Gmail, Google Apps as SMTP source. You can enable two-factor authentication or use the default Gmail. We suggest you use two-factor authentication for better security.

Find below the necessary actions for the specified methods
