Configure SMTP Server - Darkroom iPad App

Configure SMTP Server - Darkroom iPad App

Paid Feature

This is a paid feature. You must Unlock Darkroom Booth for iPad to use. Without unlocking, you cannot set a custom SMTP server.

This screen is where you can configure your custom SMTP server.

Note: To change the Email From Name you MUST configure your own SMTP server.

Gmail (or G Suite or Google Apps) may not work due to Google Security restrictions.

Please see specific Custom SMTP documents below:

Generic SMTP Configuration Settings

<code>1. Host
	

Your SMTP server name. 
For example, smtp.gmail.com, smtp.zoho.com, smtp.sendgrid.net

<code>2. Port
	

Your SMTP server port. 
Commonly 465 or 587.

<code>3. Username
	

Your email username. 
Usually your email address, but can be different.

<code>4. Enable SSL
	

Choose to enable SSL.

<code>5. Password
	

The password you use to log into your mail account.

<code>6. Email Address
	

Your email address, as above.

<code>7. Send Test Email
	

This area allows you to test your SMTP server. Enter an email address to send the test email address to (can be the same as your email address set above).

Once you enter the email address, press Send Test. You will see the text area at the bottom of the page start showing some details.


Troubleshooting

If Successful:

You will see a green message with "The SMTP server successfully configured".
You will receive an email to the Send Test Email address with the subject "Custom SMTP Success".

If Fails:
You will see a red message with "The SMTP server recorded an error code xxx".
If you get this message, there is something wrong with the SMTP details entered.

Check your settings and try again.

Save SMTP Settings

You must press the Save SMTP Settings button after entering the details. If you do not save, the settings will be lost.

If you have attempted to enter new SMTP settings in error, press the Cancel button to cancel all changes.

Once you save, you will be taken back to the Sharing Settings screen, where you can see that the Custom SMTP Server is now "configured".
