How to Configure Apple Mail to Use a Custom SMTP Server

Are you looking for instructions on how to change your SMTP server settings in Apple Mail? Look no further! In this article, we will walk you through the steps to update your Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) settings in Apple Mail on your Mac.

To start, open Apple Mail and navigate to the 'Preferences' menu. Select 'Accounts' from the dropdown list, then click on the '+' button at the bottom left corner of the window. If you have previously configured email accounts in Apple Mail, you can select 'Mail' > 'Preferences' instead.

In the Accounts window, select your email account and click on the 'Edit' button next to it. You will be prompted to enter your email address, full name, and password in the respective fields.

Next, click on the 'Server Settings' tab and enter the following information:

* Host Name: * Email Address: Your email address

* Domain Name: Your domain name

If you're unsure of what these settings are, you can find your server's host name listed in the upper left corner of your Control Panel.

Once you've entered the required information, click on 'Save' to save your changes. Apple Mail will then verify your new server settings. If everything is configured correctly, you should receive a confirmation message indicating that your settings have been updated successfully.

If you encounter any issues or errors during the setup process, ensure that you have entered the correct Host Name and have not left any required fields blank. You can also refer to our troubleshooting guide if you need further assistance.
