website provider email service #95

Closed McCage closed 7 years ago

McCage commented 7 years ago

Hi, I would like to use this plug-in for my BP website. I would prefer to use my own website provider email service to make it working. Can somebody explain to me why this possibility is not presented and explained? http://ruilkringdelftwestland.nl

If your email provider suppports IMAP, you could use IMAP mode, but I highly prefer Inbound. If you use Inbound, you could use a subdomain of your website's email address (eg. reply.ruilkringdelftwestland.nl), but you have to look into configuring your DNS on your web host to use Inbound Mode.

Please read the Starter Guide and do further research into either Inbound Mode or IMAP Mode.

Since this isn't a bug report, I'm going to close this issue.
