Your hosting account comes with a mail server but here are the settings for phpBB3. They should be the same for anything else.

Re: Way to use Google as SMTP?

you can use gooogle as your mail server. by signing up here:

http://google.com/a/

by signing up and completeing the steps, google will then act as your mail server.

there is a great tutorial on this from one of the podcast's i subscribe to:

Re: Way to use Google as SMTP?

HI Friends!

Thanks 4 replies! I wanted to use google apps! I am trying to configure my MX Entries in cpanel. But always google says,

"It looks like your domain is configured incorrectly"

Please tell me how to change MX from my cpanel to google apps!

Note: I used : cpanel >> MX Entry Maintenance >> ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM to the domain name MX. >> THEN CPANEL AUTOMATICALLY CHANGED TO;


1 ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
5 ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
10 ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM

But google says - It looks like your domain is configured incorrectly!

Plaese help me to fix this problem. EXPECT YOUR SUPPORT

Thanks!
