How to Set Up SMTP for Email via Rediffmail#

Rediffmail offers different SMTP configurations for free and Pro users. Below are the settings required to use Rediffmail for sending emails via SMTP:

SMTP Configurations for Free Rediff Users#

  • SMTP Server/Host: smtp.rediffmail.com

  • SMTP Port: 25

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

  • SMTP Password: Your Rediff password.

SMTP Configurations for Pro Rediff Users#

  • SMTP Server/Host: smtp.rediffmailpro.com

  • SMTP Port: 587

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

  • SMTP Password: Your Rediff password.

Additional Information#

  • For free users, SMTP over port 25 does not encrypt data, which might pose a security risk. It is advisable to use encrypted connections if available.

  • Pro users should use port 587, which typically supports STARTTLS, a protocol that encrypts the communication.

  • Ensure that SMTP access is enabled in your Rediffmail settings, as this may be disabled by default.
