SMTP - Appsmith

The following document assumes that you understand the basics of connecting to a datasource on Appsmith. If not, please go over them before reading further.
The SMTP plugin can connect to an SMTP server to send the dynamic email(s) to a list of recipients.
Connection Settings
The SMTP datasource requires the following information to establish a connection. All fields are mandatory.
Click to expand
1.Host address: This is the host address of the SMTP server.
2.Port: The port over which you will communicate with the SMTP server. Typically this is 25 or 587.
3.Username: The username of the SMTP server.
4.Password: The password of the SMTP server. Please note that if you have a multi-factor authentication setup for your SMTP server, your normal password may not work. You may have to generate a separate password from your provider, which will work without multi-factor authentication.
