Sending email with SMTP

Are you currently using SMTP in your application? You can seamlessly transition your email delivery. This feature lets you send messages using plain SMTP by simply directing your configuration to Naxai's SMTP server.

How does it work

You can send emails using SMTP in two ways, depending on your SMTP client's capabilities. The only variation lies in the configuration settings.

An SMTP client is any web app or email client that allows you to input SMTP details such as the server, username, and password to facilitate email sending.

To use the SMTP Relay, you must first create API credentials to obtain a Client ID and a Secret.
You can use any API client ID and secrets with the SMTP Relay; use the Client ID for the User and the Secret for the password.

Connection details

Server: smtp.naxai.com

Ports: 587
TLS: TLS is available via the STARTTLS SMTP extension. This establishes an encrypted connection to our SMTP server, and all credentials and content are encrypted while transmitted to us.

Authentication Methods:

  • PLAIN : The server asks the client to authorize using the user (client ID) and password (client Secret). This information is sent as a single Base64-encoded string.
  • LOGIN : The server requests authorization from the client using the user (client ID) and password (client Secret). In contrast to PLAIN, the user and password are sent one at a time, and the credentials are Base64 encoded.
  • XOAUTH2 : You can use XOAUTH2 and pass your token, see Authentication
