If you have a shared hosting package and you set up an e-mail address, you may consider the option to send out and receive messages for granted, however, this is not always the case. Sending e-mails is not always part of the web hosting plans that providers will offer you and an SMTP service is needed to be able to do that. The abbreviation signifies Simple Mail Transfer Protocol and that is the software application that permits you to send out e-mails. If you work with an email app, it connects to the SMTP server. The latter then queries the DNS records of the domain name, that is a part of the receiving address to find out what mail server manages its e-mails. After some system data is swapped, your SMTP server delivers the e-mail to the remote IMAP or POP server and then the email is finally delivered in the matching mailbox. An SMTP server is needed if you use some kind of contact page form too, so if you have a no charge hosting package, as an example, it's probable that you will not have the ability to make use of this type of form as many free of charge hosting companies do not allow outgoing email messages.

SMTP Server in Shared Hosting

In case you have a shared hosting plan with us, you'll be able to send e-mails through our SMTP server working with any e-mail software as well as any device. The service is available with our packages by default, not on demand or maybe as an optional paid upgrade. You can send emails from anywhere you want to using our webmail or an email application of your choice. The SMTP server also allows you to take advantage of contact forms in your sites simply by including the server name and your email in the form code, so you will not need to do anything more technical than that to get a PHP mail form to operate. You’ll find the needed SMTP settings inside the Emails section of your Hepsia Hosting Control Panel along with detailed help articles for common desktop and phone email clients that will allow you to resolve any problem if you aren't able to send out emails for reasons unknown.
