How to Set Up SMTP for Email via GMX#

For users who prefer GMX for sending emails via SMTP, the following SMTP configurations are necessary:

SMTP Server Details#

  • SMTP Server/Host: smtp.gmx.com

  • SMTP Port: Use 25 for non-SSL or 465 for SSL connections.

Authentication Information#

  • SMTP User Name: Your GMX email address (e.g., yourname@gmx.com).

  • SMTP Password: Your GMX password.

Considerations#

  • Ensure you are using the correct port based on your security preference: Port 25 is typically used for non-secure connections, whereas Port 465 is used for secure (SSL) connections.

  • If you encounter issues with sending email, check to ensure that SMTP access is enabled in your GMX account settings. Additionally, verify that your account credentials and server settings are correctly entered.
