What is a SMTP Account?

In a nutshell, a SMTP account is a basic service provided by most email servers that allows you to send email messages from almost any email software on your local PC, such as Outlook, Thunderbird, Foxmail, and 1and1Mail.

It is very important to set up your SMTP accounts correctly in 1and1Mail before sending any mass mails.

You need the following info before you proceed:- Email account username and password- SMTP server address (e.g. mail.yetesoft.com, smtp.gmail.com)- SMTP port number (e.g. 25, 465 or 587)- Encryption/Secured connection method (e.g. SSL or TLS)- Need authentication or not

If you are not sure about these settings, please ask your email service providers or your IT staff for help.

(If you are using free email accounts, such as Gmail, Outlook/Hotmail/Windows Live Mail, Yahoo! Mail or AOL Mail, you can refer to here for their latest SMTP settings.)

Sending Policy

- Another 2 parameters can be set under “Sending Policy” tab: 1. Sending Delay: the time to pause after sending each email (The longer, the safer). With random pause between 2 numbers, 1and1Mail is like a real person manually sending each email, not a robot trying to spam others. 2. Maximum sending amount: how many emails can be sent in 24 hours (Make sure you do not exceed the send quota of your email account).

- Click “OK” to complete the account setup.
