Allow zohomail to send mail from mail client

Zoho Mail is a popular email service that allows you to send and receive emails. To allow Zoho Mail to send mail from a mail client, you'll need to configure your mail client to use Zoho Mail's SMTP settings. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you do so:

Step 1: Enable SMTP Relay in Zoho Mail

  1. Log in to your Zoho Mail account.
  2. Click on the gear icon () in the top right corner and select "Settings".
  3. Scroll down to the "Security" section and click on "SMTP Relay".
  4. Enable the "SMTP Relay" toggle switch.
  5. Note down the "SMTP Server" and "SMTP Port" values, as you'll need them later.

Step 2: Configure your mail client

  1. Open your mail client (e.g., Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, etc.).
  2. Go to the "Settings" or "Preferences" section and look for the "Accounts" or "Email" settings.
  3. Click on "Add Account" or "New Email Account" and select the type of account you want to create (e.g., POP, IMAP, or SMTP).
  4. Enter your Zoho Mail email address and password.
  5. In the "SMTP Server" field, enter the value you noted down in Step 1 (e.g., "smtp.zoho.com").
  6. In the "SMTP Port" field, enter the value you noted down in Step 1 (e.g., "587" or "25").
  7. Make sure the "Authentication" method is set to "Username and Password" or "OAuth" (depending on your mail client's settings).
  8. Save your changes.

Step 3: Test your setup

  1. Send a test email from your mail client to a different email address (e.g., your Gmail account).
  2. Check your Zoho Mail account to ensure the email was sent successfully.

That's it! Your Zoho Mail account should now be configured to send emails from your mail client. If you encounter any issues, feel free to ask, and I'll do my best to help you troubleshoot.
