Guia para configurar Discourse: Hetzner VDS + SMTP do Private Email da Namecheap

Instalação Hospedagem
11

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 then ran ./launcher rebuild app to apply the configuration.
SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records are also fully set up through Cloudflare DNS.

As a result, Discourse connects to Namecheap’s SMTP server securely over 465/SSL and fully in line with email standards.
Given the current email volume, there is no need for an additional transactional email service such as Mailgun, Brevo, or Amazon SES at this stage.
