What are my email settings
From Free Hosting Wiki
x10hosting supports many ways of sending emails to your users. However, some have restriction to prevent abuse.
[edit] Using x10Hosting's mail server
All mail sent through x10Hosting's mail server are subject to the following restrictions:
- The "from" address must be an email address you created in cPanel.
- There is a hourly/daily limit on the number of emails that you can send.
[edit] PHP's mail()
This function uses by default the sendmail program to send emails to it's recipients. You simply need to specify the recipient and add a email account defined in cPanel as the from address in the additional headers.
[edit] SMTP
Sending mail using SMTP typically requires using a third party library such as Pear::Mail* or PHPMailer*. The configuration is:
- Mail Server Username: email name+your domain
- Mail Server Password: email address password
- Outgoing Mail Server: mail.your domain (server requires authentication) port 25
- Outgoing Mail Server: (SSL) your server.x10hosting.com (server requires authentication) port 465
- Supported Outgoing Mail Protocols: SMTP, SMTPS (SSL/TLS)
