Google Apps with WHMCS

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone.

 

I outsource email at Google Apps. I have some questions:

 

1) I did setup Mail setting in WHMCS

 

Configuration -> General Settings -> Mail tab ->

 

Mail Type: SMTP

SMTP Port: I tried 465 and 587

SMTP Host: smtp.gmail.com

SMTP Username: username@mydomain.com

SMTP Password: my email password

 

IT IS NOT WORKING.

 

When I change it to PHP Mail() everything works awesome.

 

 

2) Support Ticket Departments

 

POP3 Importing Configuration

Hostname: pop.gmail.com

Port:995

Login Name: username@mydomain.com

Password: my email password

 

Clients do receive confirmation email that support ticket has been created, but they cannot reply to emails, I mean they can but it's not attach to support ticket in WHMCS system, it sends regular email.

 

Would you explain me how email piping works? or how it suppose to work with Google mail?

 

I use WHMCS ver 3.6.1 and update lok for 3.6.1 says :

"Update #287, Update Added support for Gmail POP email importing with the pipe system" so as far as I understand it's supposed to work with Gmail right?

 

How is it all supposed to work?

 

I'm just starting adventure with WHMCS, so I may misunderstand something here. I'd really appreciate your time to explain.

Interesting... everywhere that I have researched this it states that Gmail rewrites the From address to what the authenticated user is, causing all mail to have the same From address. I will have to try this for myself now. Going to switch the DNS tomorrow.

 

Thank you, banar.
