    SMTP settings for use with Gmail

    Hi guys,

    Just setting up a 6.1.6 Umbraco site and use Gmail for our domain emails.  I am trying to set up the SMTP config  and have used the code below but keep obatining a 500 error (obviously have changed the xxx for our own settings).  Any idea where I'm going wrong guys?  cheers :)

    <network host="smtp.gmail.com" port="587" enableSsl="true" defaultCredentials="false" userName="[email protected]" password="xxx" />

    I'm using Google Apps for business for our email and the settings you have Brian worked for me. Thank you for sharing.

    <networkhost="smtp.gmail.com"port="587"enableSsl="true"defaultCredentials="false"userName="[email protected]"password="xxx"/>

    Your answer works fine but if you forget to remove the spaces between network and host the application crashes. Had to learn it the hard way ;)
