$GLOBALS[‘TYPO3_CONF_VARS’][‘MAIL’][‘transport’]¶

transport¶

Path:	$GLOBALS[‘TYPO3_CONF_VARS’][‘MAIL’]
Type:	text
Default:	‘sendmail’

smtp: Sends messages over the (standardized) Simple Message Transfer Protocol. It can deal with encryption and authentication. Most flexible option, requires a mail server and configurations in transport_smtp_* settings below. Works the same on Windows, Unix and MacOS.
sendmail: Sends messages by communicating with a locally installed MTA - such as sendmail. See setting transport_sendmail_command bellow.
dsn: Sends messages with the Symfony mailer, see Symfony mailer documentation. Configure this mailer with the [MAIL][dsn] setting.
mbox: This doesnt send any mail out, but instead will write every outgoing mail to a file adhering to the RFC 4155 mbox format, which is a simple text file where the mails are concatenated. Useful for debugging the mail sending process and on development machines which cannot send mails to the outside. Configure the file to write to in the transport_mbox_file setting below
classname: Custom class which implements Swift_Transport. The constructor receives all settings from the MAIL section to make it possible to add custom settings.

$GLOBALS[‘TYPO3_CONF_VARS’][‘MAIL’][‘transport_smtp_server’]¶

transport_smtp_server¶

Path:	$GLOBALS[‘TYPO3_CONF_VARS’][‘MAIL’]
Type:	text
Default:	‘localhost:25’

only with transport=smtp serverport of mailserver to connect to. port defaults to “25”.

$GLOBALS[‘TYPO3_CONF_VARS’][‘MAIL’][‘transport_smtp_domain’]¶

transport_smtp_domain¶

Path:	$GLOBALS[‘TYPO3_CONF_VARS’][‘MAIL’]
Type:	text
Default:	‘’

Some smtp-relay-servers require the domain to be set from which the sender is sending an email. By default, the EsmtpTransport from Symfony will use the current domain/IP of the host or container. This will be sufficient for most servers, but some servers require that a valid domain is passed. If this isn’t done, sending emails via such servers will fail.

Setting a valid SMTP domain can be achieved by setting transport_smtp_domain in the LocalConfiguration.php. This will set the given domain to the EsmtpTransport agent and send the correct EHLO-command to the relay-server.

Configuration Example for GSuite:

typo3conf/LocalConfiguration.php¶

 return [
     //....
     'MAIL' => [
         'defaultMailFromAddress' => 'webserver@example.org',
         'defaultMailFromName' => 'SYSTEMMAIL',
         'transport' => 'smtp',
         'transport_sendmail_command' => ' -t -i ',
         'transport_smtp_domain' => 'example.org',
         'transport_smtp_encrypt' => '',
         'transport_smtp_password' => '',
         'transport_smtp_server' => 'smtp-relay.gmail.com:587',

     ],
     //....

         'transport_smtp_stream_options' => [
             'ssl' => [
                 'verify_peer' => false,
                 'verify_peer_name' => false,
