External Emails and TLS/SSL

Hi there,

We have a few customers who use Gmail for their email client.
We have setup Standard ERP (version 8.4 2018-01-26) so that it bounces the emails from Hansa through Google’s basic relay.
However, we have discovered that Google have stopped the use of their basic SMTP relaying for security reasons.
We think we need to swap so that it works through Googles smtp.gmail.com using port 587 but this requires TLS/SSL – is there a way of getting Standard ERP to use TLS/SSL for sending external emails or is there a better way that you know of?

Thanks

Best wishes

Dave

Hello,

You can use the checkbox in Email and Conferences module >> Settings >> Email SMTP Server >> SMTPS (deprecated) and specify the appropriate port (587).

Hello,

it depends which port you want to use for GMAIL SMTP
more on gmail setup here:

If you want to use port 465, than:
Port 465 with SSL ticked (use the checkbox in Email and Conferences module >> Settings >> Email SMTP Server >> SMTPS (deprecated))

If you want to use port 587:
Port 587 with SSL not ticked (UNTICK the checkbox in Email and Conferences module >> Settings >> Email SMTP Server >> SMTPS (deprecated))

Note: The first time the Gateway signs in to Gmail, it will be rejected. Google will send a mail to the gmail address entitled "Review blocked sign-in attempt". This mail will contain a link that you should use to "allow access to less secure apps". After allowing this, the gateway will be able to log in.
