### Recommended Email Providers for Discourse
|
|
|
|
We strongly recommend using a dedicated email service. Email server setup and maintenance is _very_ difficult even for experienced system administrators, and getting any part of the complex required email setup wrong means your email won't be delivered, or worse, delivered erratically.
|
|
|
|
The following are template configurations for email service providers who offer generous free plans that work for most communities.
|
|
|
|
**Please note that in any email provider, you _must_ verify and use the subdomain, e.g. `discourse.example.com`. If you verify the domain only, e.g. `example.com`, mail will not be configured correctly.**
|
|
|
|
Enter these values when prompted by `./discourse-setup` per the [install guide](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md#edit-discourse-configuration):
|
|
|
|
#### [SparkPost][sp] — 100k emails/month
|
|
|
|
SMTP server address? smtp.sparkpostmail.com
|
|
SMTP user name? SMTP_Injection
|
|
SMTP password? [Any API key with Send via SMTP permission]
|
|
|
|
#### [SendGrid][sg] — 40k emails on a 30 day trial
|
|
|
|
SMTP server address? smtp.sendgrid.net
|
|

|

We recommend creating an [API Key][sg2] instead of using your SendGrid username and password.
