About

The Outgoing Server Settings allows crm to "talk" to the email server when trying to send out emails: more specifically, whether emails are sent with or without first authenticating your user information.


Outgoing server Configuration

Outgoing Server needs details about SMTP server (used for sending the mail). Go to Settings > Outgoing Server (Under Other settings Block)

  • Server name - Use mail.yourdomain.com where yourdomain.com is the actual domain name.
  • Enter the correct login details
  • Check the box Requires Authentication.


For Example,The Configuration details with GMAIL :

Server Name: ssl://smtp.gmail.com:465
Username: your_account@gmail.com
Password: your_account_password
Requires Authentication: Checked


NOTE:

To use Gmail SMTP, you need to enable SSL Support for PHP

To enable openssl On Windows, uncomment the following line in php.ini

extension=php_openssl.dll

Add the following in httpd.conf:

PhpInIDir - point to php folder

Copy libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll from php folder to apache/bin folder if you have installed through source.

If you are using vtiger bundled installation without SSL support kindly see this : http://trac.vtiger.com/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/4665
