Explanation for input fields
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Email host | The name of the server, either IP-address or host name. For example smtp.gmail.com |
| Host port | This is usually port 587 when connecting using SSL (can be left blank and default will be used) |
| Host SSL | When enabled, the call to the SMTP host will be using encryption |

Notes for using Gmail
When using GMail you need to turn on "Less secure app access" (you do NOT need to create a "app password").
Log in to your GMail/Google account. Go to account settings -> Security and then enable "Access for less secure apps".
Note! When you send using a service like GMail, don't forget to use the sender email in your server side job, or you might get an error message like "Incorrect login".
