SMTP Settings

SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol and as the name suggests the protocol is mainly used for sending messages from your web hosting account to another user. Our Hosting packages fully support that protocol and in the next few lines of this tutorial we will provide you with more information on the integration of that protocol with your Store in order for all the emails sent from your Store to use that protocol.
To activate the SMTP protocol for your Store, you need to:

Step 1: Access the Mail Configuration for your Store
Step 2: Configure the SMTP mailer

Access the Mail Configuration for your Store

PrestaShop provides you with a fully dedicated to the mailing system of your store page where you can configure entirely the mailing system and also to test it. In order to access that page you will need to login into the Back Office of your Store and to navigate to Advanced Parameters>E-mail.

Once you click on that link you will be presented with all the emailing options which we will review further in the second step of this tutorial.
