E-mail¶
SMTP configuration is required for the system to send e-mails. Use this to send emails for user account activation and password recovery. See the Activate user section for more information on how to activate a user account via e-mail.
Go to SMTP configuration.
- Fill in the SMTP server details to enable the system to send e-mails:
-
SMTP host: The address of the SMTP server to use for sending e-mails.
-
Port: The port to use for the SMTP server. The default is 587.
-
Security: The security protocol to use for the SMTP server. The default is STARTTLS.
-
Username (if _Authentication is enabled): The username to use for the SMTP server. This is usually the e-mail address of the account used to send e-mails.
-
Password (if _Authentication is enabled): The password to use for the SMTP server. This is usually the password of the account used to send e-mails.
-
Sender address: The e-mail address that will be used as the sender of the e-mails.
-
Sender name: The name that will be used as the sender of the e-mails.
-
Frontend base URL: The base URL of the frontend. This is used to generate links in the e-mails, such as the link to the login page for account activation and password recovery.
- Click the Update configuration button to save the changes. The system will now be able to send e-mails using the specified SMTP server.
You can test the SMTP configuration by clicking the Send test e-mail button. This will send a test e-mail to the specified address. If the e-mail is sent successfully, a toast message will be displayed.
