Hi,

I am not able to send the mail.
I checked the smtp settings in host settings
i set the smtp server as smtp.gmail.com:465
enable ssl
and set the mode to basic
and gave the gmail username and password
and updated and clicked the test
it showed error

Is there any possible to send the mail?

If i set the smtp server as localhost and skip other and test
then also i get error
so how to set the smtp ?

Please help me


Thanks in advance

I have set up DNN to use a gmail account as the SMTP server. If I remember, you must use xxxx@gmail.com for the user name, not xxxx.

Hi i figured out the error and the error was in the Server name . Initially i used it as smtp.gmail.com:465 and i changed it to smtp.googlemail.com and it worked fine.

I used the username only like xx@gmail.com and not as xx.

After changing the server name it worked fine.

You can also see the reference of it in the following site

Thanks for the support
