By default Oviond sends email through its managed provider. If you need every email to pass through your own SMTP server — for deliverability isolation, audit, or IP warming — configure SMTP under Settings → Email settings (/settings/email-settings). Saving an SMTP config makes SMTP your active email provider.
Open Email settings
Go to Settings → Email settings and set up SMTP (via Set up SMTP, or Add Sender → SMTP server).
Enter your server details
Provide the SMTP host, port (default 587), username, and password, plus the from email and an optional from name. Leave Use TLS/SSL checked unless your server requires otherwise.
Save
Oviond tests the connection, then — if it succeeds — stores the password encrypted at rest and switches the account’s active provider to SMTP.
Fields
Connection test
Oviond tests the connection as part of saving — there’s no separate test button. When you save, it connects to the server and verifies your credentials without sending an email; if the test fails, the save is aborted and the error (usually auth, TLS, or firewall related) is shown inline.
Remove SMTP
Deleting the SMTP config removes its credentials and cascade-deletes any senders tied to SMTP. If SMTP was the active provider, Oviond falls back to the Oviond provider.
A misconfigured SMTP server stops email from delivering. Because the save aborts on a failed connection test, a stored config has already passed the test — but verify deliverability with a real send before relying on it for client email.
