SMTP Protocol
Available on all plans
SMTP validates credentials by testing email sending capability.
What is SMTP?
SMTP is the protocol used for sending emails. Krantz Mail uses SMTP AUTH to verify credentials can authenticate for sending.
When to Use
SMTP validation is useful when:
- You need to verify sending capability
- IMAP/POP3 are blocked but SMTP is available
Limitations
Unlike IMAP and POP3, SMTP:
- Cannot read emails
- Cannot access mailbox contents
- Only validates authentication
