How to configure email notifications for new posts / messages / updates?

KvizadSaderah

Hello!
Is the some detailed and easy manual for noobs on how to configure emails?
Official docs on that for super duper hackers.
Trying to figure it out. Using default approach with smtp.
But have suspicious that my ISP have locked email ports.
But usually they block 25 right? But for smtp we have 465 or 587..

KvizadSaderah usually, you obtain SMTP credentials from your email provider. You can then fill those values in the Flarum admin panel, and like you say sometimes you might need to contact your hosting provider to allow outbound SMTP connections.

If you already tried unsuccessfully, can you maybe share the credentials you tried (without the password) and the error messages you receive in the Flarum log file ?

Also please specify the names of the companies you use for email and web hosting.
