Maildroid was born from the frustration of implementing a good emailing solution I had while developing a few client apps. I had to do many hours of unneeded work to make some emailing functions work using old libraries. Those libraries were limited to one SMTP server and because of that frustration Maildroid
was born..
- MacroDroid is using this library (check issue #17 for proof)
- How to use Google
gmail
smtp server
As stated above every smtp server that uses SSL should be supported.
Tutorial how to usesmtp.gmail.com
:
-
If you choose this SMTP server we suggest making brand new account and enabling less secure apps in settings. Google support link
-
smtp.("smtp.gmail.com")
-
smtpUsername.("")
your gmail email adress -
smtpPassword.("")
your gmail password -
smtpPort.("465")
gmail SSL port -
How to test sending emails,but not to affect client
