Is there a SMTP mailserver that can be used to send out email through the server?

0

In general, you should always user your ISP’s SMTP mailserver for outgoing email. You can usually find this information in the support section of your ISP’s website or on the setup email they sent you when you signed-up for their service. If for some reason you do not have an SMTP mailserver, it may be possible to relay email through our mailserver using SMTP Authentication. To do this you’ll need to configure your email program settings to enable authentication and you will need to supply the same username and password that you use with your email account for incoming email. Use your domain name as your outgoing SMTP mailserver (i.e. yourdomain.com). NOTE: Not all email programs support SMTP Authentication. Also, many ISP’s do not allow any relaying at all except through their own SMTP mailserver. This is known as Port 25 Blocking and it is used by ISP’s to prevent spamming through open relays.

You can usually find this information in the support section of your ISP’s website or in the setup email they sent you when you signed-up for their service. If for some reason you do not have an SMTP mailserver, it may be possible to relay email through our mailserver using “SMTP Authentication”. To do this you’ll need to configure your email program settings to enable authentication and you will need to supply the same username and password that you use with your email account for incoming email. Use either your domain name (i.e. yourdomain.com) or mail.illumen.co.uk as your outgoing SMTP mailserver.
