Outgoing email settings
Send emails using:
- General SMTP server. Emails are sent out using SmartAccounts’ SMTP server. The emails will have a ‘from’ address of no-reply@smaccounts.eu and a ‘reply to’ address you have set here as the sender email.
- External SMTP server. Emails are sent out using the SMTP server of your email service provider. That requires authentication with a username and password. Both the ‘from’ and ‘reply to’ addresses of the emails will be the address you have set here as the sender email.
- General SMTP server (old). Emails are sent out the old way using SmartAccounts’ SMTP server. This option cannot be relied upon because of modern junk mail rules and we will stop supporting this option soon. Therefore we recommend using your own SMTP server or the newer SmartAccounts’ SMTP server solution. Please note that this option is displayed only for companies that have it currently selected.
