You have two options for this.

  1. You can use an email server for sendmail function as Postfix, try this tutorial

  2. or you can use an external SMTP credentials as Gmail

A little-known feature about Gmail and Google Apps email is Google's portable SMTP server. Instead of having to manage your own outgoing mail server, you can simply configure Google's SMTP server.

You can find this configuration on Menu -> Site Configurations -> Advanced Configurations

  • Gmail SMTP server address: smtp.gmail.com
  • Gmail SMTP username: Your Gmail address (e.g. [email protected])
  • Gmail SMTP password: Your Gmail password
  • Gmail SMTP port (TLS): 587
  • Gmail SMTP port (SSL): 465
  • Gmail SMTP TLS/SSL required: yes
