Sending email through the Nimbus Hosting platform
Sending email through the Nimbus Hosting platform
Although the Nimbus Hosting platform does not support email accounts using IMAP and POP there is still a local email service (Postfix) for sending email from your web site.
To configure your site to send email out directly from the server you can use the below two options:
- In PHP you can use the mail() function or use the following path to send out via
> /usr/lib/sendmail
- Or if you are configuring a contact form plug-in or similar for WordPress you can use the below email settings:
Host: localhost
Port: 25
Authentication: None
For best practice and better delivery results we recommend using a third party email relay service like SparkPost or Mandrill.
