SMTP Setting

Posted by Community Admin on 26-Aug-2010 00:00

Hi,

If no authentication is required for smtp , how to set up the seetings so that news letter can be send.

The following message am getting.

No mail server has been set

though have configured like below

<system.net>
    <mailSettings>
      <smtp >
        <network host="localhost" defaultCredentials="true" port="25" />
      </smtp>
    </mailSettings>
</system.net>

Regards,

Siby Chacko

Hi siby,

There would not be a problem to use a host without credentials. Use SystemConfig.config ~/SitefinityWebApp/App_Data/Sitefinity/Configuration/SystemConfig.config

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<systemConfig>

....

              ......

</applicationModules>

<smtpSettings host="hostname" domain="domainname" />

<licensing />

<uiTimeZoneSettings />

</systemConfig>

or backend UI - Settings >> Configuration >> System

We use SmtpClient.Credentials Property to get/set credentials to use for authentication

All the best,

Hi

I could not find any path "~/SitefinityWebApp/App_Data/Sitefinity/Configuration/SystemConfig.config".
Also any Admin site module for "backend UI - Settings >> Configuration >> System"

Hello siby,

Check attached screentshot. SystemConfig.config should be in the specified location, otherwise you will not be able to use the CMS.

Kind regards,

Hi but am using sitefinity 3.7, there the UI is quite different once logged in to the cms. I cannot see
system menu. Instead can see tyhe menus "dahboard", "pages","modules", "files" and "administration" and "livesite".

Hi siby,

The request you have opened is for Sitefintiy 4.0. In 3.x it is not possible use set up Newsletters module without username and password. If you are trying to send the email through your own control, please check the SMTP server settings.

Best wishes,
