Configure Abiquo mail server

The Abiquo platform has its own mail server that can send emails to users of the platform.

To define a mail server to use in Abiquo, on the Abiquo server, set the “abiquo.server.mail” properties.

1. Configure the mail server with server.mail properties, including the sender with the from property.

   abiquo.server.mail.from=  
   abiquo.server.mail.password=none  
   abiquo.server.mail.port=25
   abiquo.server.mail.server=127.0.0.1  
   abiquo.server.mail.ssl=false
   abiquo.server.mail.tls=false
   abiquo.server.mail.user=none@none.es
   abiquo.server.mail.extra.{javax mail property}=  

After you change abiquo properties, remember to restart the tomcat server.
