Add Mail Account settings for sending Armacrypt secure mail using Gmail™
Using Armacrypt to send encrypted email requires an outgoing (SMTP) mail server.
Gmail provides such a service and the following instructions outline the steps required
to setup Armacrypt to use Gmail's outgoing (SMTP) mail server.
- Click the "Tools" menu item on the Armacrypt toolbar
and select "Accounts for sending Email" from the drop-down list.

-
Click the "New" button to enter details for the new mail
account.

- The "Account Description" field is local identifier for your mail account
to differentiate multiple accounts. The "Email Name" field is the name that
will appear as the Sender of outgoing emails. The "Email Address" field is
the reply address unless you enter a different address in the "Reply Address" field.
Enter the required information and click "Next"
to add your mail server information.

- Enter the Mail Server information required. The Outgoing Mail Server
address is "smtp.gmail.com". The Account Name and Password are your Gmail account
credentials. After entering the correct information, click
"Next" to enter the advanced mail account settings required
by Gmail.

- To finalise the settings for your Gmail account you must select
"Secure (SSL) connection required by server" on the Advanced
tab. The Outgoing
Port number should be 465. The Port number should change automatically
when you select the Secure SSL check box. Click "OK" or "Apply" to save you settings.

- Your account settings have now been saved. Click
"Close" to return to the main program, click "New"
to add another mail account, or click "Edit" to modify the
selected account.
