SMTP Service Provider recommendations for Rockstor email alerts

Hey Community,

I’m setting up email notifications for system alerts and monitoring in Rockstor and am evaluating different SMTP Service Provider options.

Has anyone configured IdealSMTP or a similar SMTP service with Rockstor? I’d appreciate any feedback on setup, reliability, and email delivery performance.

@Louis29 welcome to the Rockstor community.

If you are only looking for monitoring/system alerts, then something like iDealSMTP or other commercial providers are probably overkill, unless you want to send out notifications to a huge group of users. In general, using something like yahoo or other freely available providers should be able to do the job to send notifications and alerts without a problem.
