When installing or updating Kryptronic software, there is a step in the installer that requires you to set up mail. You have three choices: to use the PHP mail() function; to use an SMTP server; or to use the Unix sendmail program. This article explains how to use Google’s mail server as your SMTP server for sending emails. All you need is a Gmail account…
When running the installer, when asked how you would like to set up your mail connection, choose an SMTP Connection. On the following page, enter the following:
SMTP Server Address: smtp.gmail.com
SMTP Server Port: 587
SMTP Server Username: Your Full Gmail Address (you@gmail.com)
SMTP Server Password: Your Gmail App Password
To configure an App Password for Google, login to your Google Account, access Security / Settings / 2-Step Verification / App Passwords. Generate a password for your Gmail Account that will be used as an App Password to send mail. That’s all there is to it. After configuring, all the mail sent by the software will be sent using Google’s SMTP server.
