'''Menu path:''' Home -> Setup -> EMails | |||
The EMails setup screen allows you to setup Dolibarr to send EMails and to test your setup. | |||
= Setup parameters = | |||
This is explanation of all setup parameters: | |||
== Disable globally all emails sendings (test mode or demo) == | |||
Set this to No. If you set to yes (for a demo system for example), no more mail will be sent. | |||
== Method to send emails == | |||
* The default method is '''PHP mail function'''. This means that Dolibarr use your PHP to send emails. | |||
* If your email sending server needs authentication, you must choose '''SMTP/SMTPS socket library''', validate, this will make the field login or password appears on this page. | |||
== Hostname or ip address of SMTP/SMTPS sending server == | |||
Name or IP address of the server that send mail. It is usually an name like smtp.xxx.zzz provided by your Internet Service Provider. | |||
For example: smtp.gmail.com, smtp.aol.com, smtp.free.fr, smtp.myprovider.com | |||
== Port of SMTP/SMTPS sending server == | |||
If the email sending server use the standard port (25), you can let the field empty. | |||
Par exemple: 25 (SMTP standard), 465 (SMTPS gmail) | |||
== SMTP Authentification ID == | |||
Visible if you have choose '''SMTP/SMTPS socket library''' as sending method. Put here your login. | |||
== SMTP Authentification Password == | |||
Visible if you have choose '''SMTP/SMTPS socket library''' as sending method. Put here your password. | |||
== Usage of TLS (SSL) == | |||
Some emails servers require SSL encrypted communication (For example the SMTP server of Google smtp.gmail.com). It's SMTPS. | |||
The only method that support this protocol is '''SMTP/SMTPS socket library'''. You can enable cryptography by setting this parameter to Yes. | |||
Note: SSL functions must be available in your PHP. If not, you probably forget to install the '''openssl''' module of PHP. | |||
