- SMTP Authentication Support module for Drupal 7.x.
- This module adds SMTP functionality to Drupal.
- REQUIREMENTS
- ------------
- * Access to an SMTP server
- * The following PHP extensions need to be installed: ereg, hash, date & pcre.
- * Optional: To connect to an SMTP server using SSL, you need to have the
- openssl package installed on your server, and your webserver and PHP
- installation need to have additional components installed and configured.
- INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
- -------------------------
- 1. Copy the files included in the tarball into a directory named "smtp" in
- your Drupal sites/all/modules/ directory.
- 2. Login as site administrator.
- 3. Enable the SMTP Authentication Support module on the Administer -> Modules
- page.
- 4. Fill in required settings on the Administer -> Configuration -> System ->
- SMTP Authentication Support page.
- 5. Enjoy.
- NOTES
- -----
- This module sends email by connecting to an SMTP server. Therefore, you need
- to have access to an SMTP server for this module to work.
- Drupal will often use the email address entered into Administrator ->
- Configuration -> Site information -> E-mail address as the from address. It is
- important for this to be the correct address and some ISPs will block email that
- comes from an invalid address.
- This module no longer uses the PHPMailer package as an external library, instead
- a slimmed down version of the library have been relicensed and integrated with the
- smtp module.
- Connecting to an SMTP server using SSL is possible only if PHP's openssl
- extension is working. If the SMTP module detects openssl is available it
- will display the options in the modules settings page.
- Sending mail to Gmail requires SSL or TLS.
- If the Maillog module (https://www.drupal.org/project/maillog) is installed, it
- can be used to keep copies of all messages sent through the site.
