You’re not the first.

Troubleshooting email on a new Discourse install

[wyzemoro (Jun Macarambon)]

Ive tried gmail, google gsuite and zoho mail business.

So it will work to use other email provider as posted here - discourse/INSTALL-email.md at master · discourse/discourse · GitHub

@wyzemoro

tried gmail

A violation of their terms of service

@wyzemoro

, google gsuite

Tricky to configure, but there are some topics that discuss it.

@wyzemoro

zoho mail business.

Should work, I’d guess.

Did you make sure to configure the sent by address (I can’t quite remember the word it asks for) to one that the service is configured for?
