Case 1)There are 2 options to improve email delivery:

1.RECOMMENDED: Use 3rd party mail delivery service, for example Mailgun.

1. 1. Setup account with Mailgun service

   2. Use FTP access to open file httpdocs/WEB-INF/conf/webvideo-base.conf

   3. Search for smtp keyword to find lines for SMTP settings

   4. Update value for smtp settings to use mailgun or any other mail service

   5. Re-login as admin to apply changes.

Advantages:

• you will not need to use third-party services, and therefore pay for them 

Disadvantages:

• implies a constant adjustment of settings, since mail services regularly change the rules for sending emails

• does not exclude the possibility of emails getting into spam

2.OPTIONAL: Improve domain name and network settings to get better delivery from localhost

1. Set up SPF record for your domain name:
   TXT "v=spf1 include:yourdomain.com ~all"
   (replace yourdomain.com with your real domain name)

2. Setup Reverse DNS

A service to validate the SPF record for a domain name: https://mxtoolbox.com/spf.aspx

• more reliable delivery of emails

• regular monitorinf of changes in the rules for delivering bulk messages

• provide an interface to simplify setup

Disadvantages:

• paid service

Case 2) If you see Relay Access Denied in maillogs and there are no emails delivered make sure to whitelist 127.0.0.1 in mailserver settings at PleskImage Removed
