Follow the topics below to find which one fits the description of the problem you are having when setting up email.

### I set up the email but an error message appears when I click add

This error means that one of the fields was filled in incorrectly or that the user's authentication was not done correctly. Follow the list below for correction:

* Check if the email and password are typed correctly (if it's Gmail, the app password)
* If the ports are configured correctly based on your provider.
* If the host is correct and is actually responding; to do this follow the link to a tool below:

### I configured the integration but still cannot send emails.

To perform the SMTP configuration, go to the emails tab. There you can configure in two ways:

1. Elastic Mail - Tool focused on email marketing
2. Own SMTP - If your email provider already has its own SMTP, just configure it in this area.&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
Remember that Gmail does not have its own SMTP; it is necessary to use Elastic Mail.
{% endhint %}

To configure Elastic Mail, follow the link below:&#x20;

For Own SMTP, it is necessary to confirm with the email provider what the host, port, encryption and authentication method are.
