How to send website email through an EmailGang clone with SMTP
Contact forms and password resets need an SMTP account. Each EmailGang clone can generate its own, similar to Gmail SMTP with an app password.
Last updated 2026-10-15
What you need first
- A clone address such as [email protected] on a domain that is set up for sending (SPF and DKIM).
- The monthly send allowance of your plan. Free includes 60 sends a month, Starter 150, Pro 300 and Advanced 500.
Generate the credentials
Open the clone in the dashboard, click the key icon and choose Generate. Use these settings in your website mailer:
Host: mail.emailgang.com Port: 2525 (STARTTLS supported) Username: your clone address From: your clone address Password: the generated 16-letter app password
Common mistakes
- Using your website domain as the SMTP host while it is proxied through Cloudflare. Use mail.emailgang.com instead.
- Sending from an address on a domain that is not set up for sending, which some providers reject as unauthenticated.
- Reaching your monthly send limit. Check Settings or Pricing to upgrade.
Keep deliverability healthy
Publish SPF, DKIM and DMARC for your domain, send from the same address you authenticate with, and only email people who expect to hear from you. See the guide on creating an email address on your own domain for the DNS steps.
Frequently asked questions
- Which port should I use?
- Port 2525 on mail.emailgang.com. STARTTLS is supported, so the SSL/TLS checkbox can stay off.
- Does every clone have its own SMTP login?
- Yes. Each clone can generate dedicated SMTP credentials.
Ready to try it?
The Free plan includes 1 clone, with no card needed to start. See pricing for paid plans.
