Configure e-mail Email can be one of the most frustrating pieces to setup. Most of the issues come from having the wrong port, userid or password declared. In addition, some of the biggest email services (Gmail, MSN, Hotmail for example) won't work with the Apex because they require SSL (Secure Socket Layers) which the Apex doesn't support. Try it first with your ISP‟s email server and your account information. More often than not, that will work. If it doesn‟t work, it could be the port or SSL (see below). One email service that is free and doesn‟t require SSL is GMX (www.gmx.com) and you can use their email server to send email directly to your SSL email account like Gmail or Hotmail. You have to first establish your GMX account and get an email address. You will use this to access the GMX SMTP server. Configure your email in the Apex as below using your GMX email address as the “From” address. Note that the following configuration options are for GMX. If you are using another email service, your options will be similar but may not be identical. For example, with AT&T you need to „disable‟ email authentication. Most email services have instructions for configuring their service to work with Microsoft Outlook. You can look to that for specifics on server name, port, etc.
