Connect anonymously

When enabled, YouTrack connects to your mail service without sending a username and password. Use when your mail service does not require authentication.

When this option is enabled, the input fields for SMTP username and SMTP password are disabled. Values that are stored in these settings are ignored.

Username

The username of the account that is used to access the mail server.

Password

The password for the account that is used to access the mail server.

SSL key

This list lets you select an SSL key that contains a trusted certificate and its public and private key pairs. The key identifies YouTrack as a client when it tries to connect to your mail server.

From address

The default address for sending email notifications from YouTrack. This sets the value for the "From:" field in the email header. You can either use the format sender name <email@yourdomain.com> or enter an email address without the sender name.

For more information, see From and Reply-to Addresses.

Reply-to address

An optional address to which email replies are sent. This sets the value for the "Reply-To:" field in the email header for messages that are sent by YouTrack. Use this setting when, for example, the address that you use to send email notifications cannot receive replies.

Send test message

This control lets you test the connection to your mail server by sending a test message to a specific email address.
