What is SMTP?
Última actualización hace 2 años
SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol and it’s the industry standard protocol for email sending.
With SMTP you are sending, relaying, or forwarding messages from a mail client (like Microsoft Outlook) to a receiving email server. A sender will use an SMTP server to carry out the process of transmitting an email message.
The key thing to keep in mind when thinking about whether to use SMTP or IMAP, is that SMTP is about sending email. So, if you’re looking to enable email sending within your application, then you’ll want to go ahead with using SMTP over IMAP.
