Mailer

OpenSSO using mailer for activate user, send message contact, forgot password, etc. So you have to activate this.

config.js

useMailer: true,
recipientEmailAddress: '[email protected]',
nodeMailerTransport: {
  pool: true,
  host: 'smtp.zoho.com',
  port: 465,
  secure: true, // secure:true for port 465, secure:false for port 587
  auth: {
    user: '[email protected]',
    pass: 'xxxxxxx'
  }
},

Description:

• useMailer is to activate the mailer system.
• recipientEmailAddress message from contact us will be delivered to here.
• nodeMailerTransport is the configuration from nodemailer.

note

• I recommend to use Zoho Mail, because it's very easy and cheap.
• If you want to use free smtp service, Elastic Email is a good option for you.
• If you need custom or more advanced configuration, please see >> https://nodemailer.com.

Activation User

You can prevent BOT / Spam on user registration by sending an activation link via email.

config.js

// ---
useActivationUser: true,
