- – “Disable E-mail Delivery”: If Enable, Magento will not delivery any email to receiver. This is useful for developers.
SMTP Settings:
- In there
- – “SMTP Provider”: Select the SMTP Provider you use to send mail from then the system will automatically populate some other fields like host, port, and protocol, which are still editable.
- – “Host”: Host name or IP address of SMTP Server, this field will be filled automatically on the basis of your SMTP Provider.
- – “Port”: Port Number, this field will be filled automatically on the basis of your SMTP Provider.
