E-Mail Services¶

This section provides the interface for configuring Emakin's email services. A properly configured email service is fundamental for the application to dispatch email notifications effectively. After inputting the necessary information, administrators can utilize the "Test Connection" button, along with a valid recipient email address, to verify the connectivity and functionality by sending a test email.

Emakin prioritizes the use of OpenAuth-based email services if they are defined; otherwise, it will revert to utilizing configured SMTP connections.
