# FO SMTP Setup

Lasernet Professional does not enable the use of the **Lasernet Email Output** modules; instead, it relies on the default FO SMTP setup. Your ERP partner should know how to set up and configure the FO SMTP. However, you can also find the instructions in the following sections.

## SMTP Configuration

Follow these steps to configure the FO SMTP:

1. Start by configuring your user parameters. Click the settings icon in the upper right corner and select **User options**.

1. Navigate to the **Account** tab and ensure **SMTP** is selected as **Email Provider ID**. Then, add the email address you wish to use to send emails under **Sender email**.

1. Select the **Configuration** tab and change the **Batch email provider** to **SMTP**. Ensure that **SMTP** is present under the **ENABLED** list and that **SMTP** is set to **30** email per minute.

1. Open the **SMTP settings** tab. Type in your SMTP **SERVER INFORMATION** (**Outgoing mail server**, **SMTP port number**, **SSL/TLS required**). If your SMTP account requires authentication, toggle the **Authentication required** button to **Yes** and type in your **User name** and **Password**.

1. Once the SMTP server has been configured, you must create a batch job for email processing. Navigate to **System administration** > **Periodic tasks** > **Email distributor batch**.

Whenever you send an email (manually or through a predefined setting), this enters the email queue.

Once the email is processed, the email queue looks as follows:

You can find the new batch job by navigating to **System administration** > **Inquiries** > **Batch job** and searching for **email**. The batch job will look as follows:

It is possible to check the status of the email batch job process and the history of emails sent. Follow these steps:

1. Navigate to **System administration** > **Setup** > **Email** > **Email parameters**.
2. Select the **SMTP settings** tab and choose either to **View email history** or **Batch email sending status**.
