Example for an account using a smtp mail account

![](../assets/admin area/accounts4_en.PNG) If you use a smtp or google account, you can also use bounced email handler (BMH) function. If you use BMH, you have to define, what should happen with bounced mails. If you want to move them to special folders of your email account, you have to define this folders. You can select a standard folder in your mailbox (e.g. INBOX.Trash) or create your own special folders like 'hard' and 'soft'. If you type in a new folder name, the folder will be automatically created (this function is not available for gmail-accounts).

Test your settings

There is a feature for testing pop3 and imap/smtp accounts. ![](../assets/admin area/accounts2_en.PNG)

After starting the test () you will see, whether the account and your chosen setting are well.

Pay attention:

  1. xnewsletter is not creating an email account - the account must already exist
  2. functions like testing account, sending emails, start Bounced email handler,... work not with local server (you get white page without any error)
