SMTP configuration for sending mail with Drupal.


Email is an important part of a website. Sometime we cannot rely on the default SMTP settings provided by the hosting server. In many cases I was unable to send mail because the default sendmail installation no longer functioning. Fortunately I quickly found a solution with the SMTP Authentication Support module.

This module allows Drupal to bypass the PHP mail() function and send email directly to an SMTP server. The module supports SMTP authentication and can even connect to servers using SSL if supported by PHP.
