The following are template configurations for email service providers who offer generous free plans that work for most communities. The following are template configurations for email service providers who offer generous free plans that work for most communities.
Use these values when you [edit your Discourse `app.yml` configuration file](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md#edit-discourse-configuration): **Please note that in any email provider, you _must_ verify and use the subdomain, e.g. `discourse.example.com`. If you verify the domain only, e.g. `example.com`, mail will not be configured correctly.**
Enter these values when prompted by `./discourse-setup` per the [install guide](https://github.com/discourse/discourse/blob/master/docs/INSTALL-cloud.md#edit-discourse-configuration):
#### [SparkPost][sp] (100k emails/month) #### [SparkPost][sp] (100k emails/month)
```yml SMTP server address? smtp.sparkpostmail.com
DISCOURSE_SMTP_ADDRESS: smtp.sparkpostmail.com SMTP user name? SMTP_Injection
DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME: SMTP_Injection SMTP password? [Any API key with Send via SMTP permission]
DISCOURSE_SMTP_PASSWORD: [Any API key with Send via SMTP permission]
```
If not using **the exact** domain you verified (e.g. you're using a subdomain of it), you must change the default `from` email to match the sending domain. Uncomment (and update with your sending domain) this line in `app.yml`:
```yml
- exec: rails r "SiteSetting.notification_email='info@unconfigured.discourse.org'"
```
#### [SendGrid][sg] (12k emails/month) #### [SendGrid][sg] (12k emails/month)
```yml SMTP server address? smtp.sendgrid.net
DISCOURSE_SMTP_ADDRESS: smtp.sendgrid.net SMTP user name? apikey
DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME: apikey SMTP password? [SendGrid API Key]
DISCOURSE_SMTP_PASSWORD: [SendGrid API Key]
```
We recommend creating an [API Key][sg2] instead of using your SendGrid username and password. We recommend creating an [API Key][sg2] instead of using your SendGrid username and password.
