Using SMTP authentication for out-bound message

You need to create user accounts in Xeams in order to use SMTP authentication. Click here to see how to create user accounts.

IMPORTANT: The email address serves the login ID

Once a user id and password is created, you can specify those values in your email client to use SMTP authentication.

Consider the following scenario. You have disabled SMTP Relay for any client who connects from the Internet and want to challenge the user with a user id and password before accepting an email for non-local domains. Following steps show you how to use SMTP authentication.

• Create a user. Let's the user is John and you have created an account for him using john@YourCompany.com as the email address. John uses Microsoft Outlook Express to send and receive emails.
• Use John's email address for the Account Name and check the box for Outgoing mail server
  
• Refer to the following image showing what values to specify in your client. This screen may look different if you are using any other client.
