{Note that we had a company name change back in 2017 from Myrsol to DynamicIDX}

If you have already completed these steps and your email credentials have changed, repeat steps 6-17. If only your email password has changed, you may repeat only steps 11-17.

If you changed your Google email "2-Step Verification" settings or the "Less secure apps" settings, Google says "These changes may take up to 24 hours to propagate to all users."

  1. Login to the admin by appending /admin to your domain to access the login page and entering your login credentials.

  2. See screenshot below
  3. See screenshot below
  4. See screenshot below
  5. See screenshot below

  1. Common email services are listed
  2. Common email services will pre-configure the [SMTP Host Name].
  3. Common email services will pre-configure the [SMTP Port]
  4. Common email services will pre-configure the [Encryption]
  5. SMTP Username is usually the email address
  6. SMTP Password is your email password (unless you're using 2-step authentication. In that case, use the "App Password" for this field.)
  7. Click [Update] to save. The last update date/time will appear.
  8. Use any valid email address for testing purposes.
  9. When testing, you must re-enter the SMTP password. Do not click [Update] when testing. You already did this in step 12, and doing before testing will clear the password field which will cause your test to fail.
  10. [Test SMTP Settings] - If you receive a "Successfully sent..." message like below, a test email will be sent to the inbox for the email address you entered in step 13.

    If you receive an "error" message like below, verify steps 6-11, then repeat steps 13-17.

  1. After your test message is successful, choose "Enable".
  2. Click "Update" to save changes.

If you have already completed these steps and your email credentials have changed, repeat steps 6-17. If only your email password has changed, you may repeat only steps 11-17.

Note: If you are using Google 2-Factor for security, you will have to generate a password for your domain. See this link for more info!
