Specify your email provider
Solution No. 61

Enter your email server settings so that you can send emails from SaaSphalt.

  1. In SaaSphalt, click the gear icon.

  2. Click Preferences from the menu

  3. Click Email.

  4. Enter your SMTP mail server settings. If you are unsure what your settings are, contact the person at your company who initially set-up your Email account or the company who hosts your Email. Here are a few tips to help you out:

    • If you have a @yourcompanyname.com email address, the SMTP server is typically smtp.yourcompanyname.com.
    • If you use gmail, the SMTP server is typically "smtp.gmail.com"
    • If you use Yahoo!, the SMTP server is typically "smtp.mail.yahoo.com".
    • If you use Yahoo! Plus, the SMTP server is typically "plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com".
    • If you use Hotmail, the SMTP server is typically "smtp.live.com".
    • If you use MSN, the SMTP server is typically "smtp.email.msn.com".
    • The Email User Name is typically your full email address.
    • The Email Password is typically the password used to access your email.
    • For the Port, you can typically leave this blank.  If you do, SaaSphalt will use port 25 for non-SSL accounts, port 587 for gmail accounts, and port 465 for all other SSL accounts. 
  1. Click Save.

  6. Under the Email & Notifications section click to un-check the check box next to Use company email settings.
