How can I use my own SMTP settings with EverWeb's contact form?

The Contact Form Advanced in EverWeb 2.1 lets you use your own SMTP settings to send email which significantly improves the chances that you will properly receive form submissions.

Important: To help improve reliability of your contact form, use the same SMTP settings for the email address you want the form submissions to go to or use the new 'EverWeb API' feature under the 'Mail Sending' introduced in EverWeb 3.8.

Your SMTP options are provided by your web hosting provider and are the same settings you use in your email client to send emails. There are 2 options you can use;

1. EverWeb + Hosting email account
2. Your web hosting providers SMTP details (you must verify your settings with them)

1. EverWeb + Hosting email account

  1. Make sure that you have created your email account already
  2. Get your SMTP details from section 3 here
  3. Enter your SMTP settings in the Inspector->Widget Settings (last button) while the contact form is selected
  4. Publish your website

2. Your web hosting providers SMTP details (you must verify your settings with them)

  1. Make sure you have already set up your email account with your web hosting provider
  2. Verify your SMTP settings with your web hosting provider
  3. Enter your SMTP settings in the Inspector->Widget Settings (last button) while the contact form is selected
  4. Publish your website

3. Use the EverWeb API option under 'Mail Sending' in the Contact Forms Inspector

This option requires the Contact Forms Enhanced Add-on but will make everything work out of the box. The Contact Forms Enhanced Add-on also includes file uploads, a date and time picker, confirmation emails sent to your visitors, managing form submissions from your client area and mass, personalized emails sent to your customers.
