Godaddy settings

the plugin postman SMTP works without any problem on godaddy/wordpress/contact7

GoDaddy settings that work for me are as follows:

SMTP Host: smtpout.secureserver.net
Encryption: None
Port: 80
SMTP Authentication: Yes
SMTP Username: the user name (complete e-mail address) of the GoDaddy e-mail account that you are using to send
SMTP Password: the password that you assigned to your GoDaddy e-mail account

I have had problems with the GoDaddy e-mail accounts that are included with domains and hosting plans. I’m not sure why, but GoDaddy Workspace e-mail accounts are more reliable. Test your GoDaddy SMTP Username and SMTP Password at https://email.secureserver.net to be sure that they are correct before entering them in the Easy WP SMTP configuration.

GoDaddy is not using smtp, I have been trying to solve this problem too.

Hi Canyasa,

What makes you think GoDaddy is not using SMTP? We have 15 SMTP accounts with GoDaddy. I’d recommend that you contact GoDaddy if you want more info about their SMTP services. Once you determine that GoDaddy fully supports SMTP, use the settings I posted above.

GoDaddy online support told me exactly this “GoDaddy doesn’t use smtp server, we only use relay e-mail server”, however I used your solution and worked perfectly, thanks! I guess you work at GoDaddy I highly recommend that to tell support people to learn before they try to help customers. Seriously they have no idea about this wordpress smtp issue.

hey @deeveedee, I am using these settings below for my old wordpress site and works great<br>
SMTP Host: smtpout.secureserver.net
Encryption: None
Port: 80
SMTP Authentication: Yes
SMTP Username: the user name (complete e-mail address) of the GoDaddy e-mail account that you are using to send
SMTP Password: the password that you assigned to your GoDaddy e-mail account<br><br>

However, I have created a new site and put same settings but it didn’t work. I keep getting “SMTP connect() failed. https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer/wiki/Troubleshooting&#8221;. Any ideas?
