What are my email settings

x10hosting supports many ways of sending emails to your users. However, some have restriction to prevent abuse.

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.

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.

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)
