SMTP
0:06
Welcome to this IT Explainer video, part of our configuration topic range.
0:11
In this video we will cover the subject of SMTP within SLM.
0:16
SLM uses SMTP configuration to send emails from the application.
0:20
In this module, we’re going to review SMTP configuration variables required to set up e-mail.
0:30
All of the necessary variables for SMTP are in the env file.
0:36
So if we go to the installation folder of the code base, we can find the dot env file in here and edit that.
0:42
We can use any text editor to edit this.
0:45
So the SMTP configuration variables are stored under the SMTP variable section, which is on line 51.
0:53
There are a few variables that we need to process or that we need to configure.
0:57
First one is called SMTP host.
0:59
This is the host name of the SMTP provider.
1:02
SMTP user is the username for the SMTP for SMTP pass.
1:07
That’s where we’re going to put the password for the SMTP user.
1:11
This username and password can be empty.
1:15
If there’s no authentication involved or the e-mail provider does not require any authentication, we can just leave it as empty.
1:22
Next is for the SMTP port, which is the port number for the SMTP.
1:27
Next one is SMTP crypto, which is the crypto method for the SMTP.
1:33
It can be SSLTLS.
1:35
If there’s no username and password we can leave it as blank or a zero which is false.
1:39
Next one is SMTP auth.
1:42
If we have a username and password authentication setup we set this as one, otherwise we set it as zero.
1:48
The last one is SMTPTLS.
1:51
If we use the TLS for the crypto then we need to set this as a one, otherwise we will set this as a 0.
