Configuring Jenkins email notification with gmail

The hostname for the Google SMTP server is smtp.gmail.com and if you use SSL, then the correct Port is 465.

A POP server is usually just for receiving mails, not sending mails.


Below are the updated gmail SMTP server configuration :

Gmail SMTP server address: smtp.gmail.com
Gmail SMTP user name: Your full Gmail address (e.g. [email protected])
Gmail SMTP password: Your Gmail password
Gmail SMTP port: 465
Gmail SMTP TLS/SSL required: yes

This configuration is working fine for me .
