In Basic Settings, specify the following properties and click Save.

Mail Server Settings

  • Protocol: Email transmission protocol (default: TLS). Choose one of the following:
    • PLAIN: Unencrypted SMTP communication.
    • SSL: SMTPS communication. The default port is 465/tcp.
    • TLS: SMTP over TLS (STARTTLS) communication. The default port is 587/tcp.
  • Server Address: Address of the SMTP server.
  • Port: TCP port for SMTP communication (default: 587).
  • Sender Address: Email address of the sender.
  • Display Name: Display name of the sender.
  • User: Username for SMTP server login.
  • Password: Password for SMTP server login.
Note
Typically, SSL uses port 465/tcp, and TLS uses port 587/tcp for SMTP communication. For Gmail, enter the same value for both the sender address and user.
