Hello, I am planning to set up a new Discourse forum and would like to clarify a few points: Server: I will purchase a VDS from Hetzner. Which operating system is recommended for Discourse? Email/SMTP: I’m considering using Namecheap Private Email. Will this SMTP service work smoothly during the …

Hi! [이미지] Can: Which operating system is recommended for Discourse? Depends on your forum’s size and activity. If it’s small, a CX22 for 5€/month will be fine. A CAX11 (ARM architecture) has the same specs and price, but I find that Discourse runs even better on ARM than x86, not sure why.…

It may look easy to you, but it feels a bit complicated to me. Is it enough to proceed using the VDS IP address, or is it necessary to link a domain name? Do I need to create any additional empty space/partition on the VDS? And are there any services or professionals who can provide this setup as…

Namecheap Private Email is not only for inbox (IMAP/POP) use; it fully supports secure outbound SMTP delivery as well. In my Discourse setup I configured: mail.privateemail.com as the SMTP host Port 465 / SSL DISCOURSE_SMTP_ENABLE_START_TLS: false DISCOURSE_SMTP_FORCE_TLS: true and th…

I’m fairly certain NameCheap Private Email isn’t a transactional mail service (I can’t find anything to say it is?). Discourse recommends a transactional mail service be used. You may encounter problems like this if you use things like NameCheap Private Email. If it works for you, then …

[이미지] Can: it fully supports secure outbound SMTP delivery as well. [이미지] NateDhaliwal: I’m fairly certain NameCheap Private Email isn’t a transactional mail service It might be a good idea to look if their terms of service allow using it for transactional emails :slight_smile: If it’…
