SMTP Settings

These settings are to configure built-in SMTP client, and are ignored if the client is not explicitly enabled (see 'Email Notifications').

SMTP_SERVER_NAME

SMTP_SERVER_PORT

Port number of specified SMTP server. The default numbers are 25 for simple SMTP and 587 for SMTP over TLS.

SMTP_SERVER_TIMEOUT

Maximum time to wait for response from SMTP server (in seconds). If not sure, keep default value.

SMTP_USERNAME / SMTP_PASSWORD

Login and password of server's account, if your SMTP server requires authentication. You can keep SMTP_USERNAME empty, if you would like anonymous access (and your SMTP server allows it).

SMTP_MAILFROM

SMTP_USE_TLS

Some SMTP servers accepts only TLS-secured connections. When use such server, configure this option correspondingly. Possible values are:

  • 0 - TLS is disabled
  • 1 - TLS is enabled
