By default our program uses the php mail function to send emails and you do not have to make any changes to the configuration file to send email. However, if you have an email list that has more than 10,000 emails then it is faster to send email via the SMTP server directly. You must check with your hosting company to make sure they support sending email directly with SMTP server. If they do then within the lib directory there is a file called:
etools2.php
within this file you want to search for:
$smtp_servers=array
Once you find this line you want to setup your smtp server. If you have one server then you would have:
$smtp_servers=array(
array('host' => '127.0.0.1', 'keep-alive' => true, 'username'=>'ee','password'=>'sss')
);
Right now this option is commented out with "//" you should remove the "//"
If you have 2 servers then you would have:
$smtp_servers=array(
array('host' => '127.0.0.1', 'keep-alive' => true, 'username'=>'ee','password'=>'sss'),
);
The 127.0.0.1 is used if you are sending from local host. However if you are sending are sending to an external host then you should place the IP or domain of that host within the host variable.
If your smtp server does not require authentication, then you should delete: |
