Configure SMTP for outbound emails

To configure outbound email, follow these steps:

  • Go to the /opt/bitnami/tinytinyrss/ Tiny Tiny RSS installation folder.

  • Ensure that the ttrss-mailer-smtp plugin is installed in the plugins.local subfolder. If not, follow the installation instructions in the plugin’s official documentation.

  • Edit the config.php file adding the SMTP configuration. For example, if using a Gmail account, replace USERNAME and PASSWORD with your Gmail account username and password respectively:

      putenv('TTRSS_SMTP_FROM_NAME=Tiny Tiny RSS');
  putenv('TTRSS_SMTP_FROM_ADDRESS=USERNAME@gmail.com');
  putenv('TTRSS_SMTP_HOST=smtp.gmail.com:465');
  putenv('TTRSS_SMTP_LOGIN=USERNAME@gmail.com');
  putenv('TTRSS_SMTP_PASSWORD=PASSWORD');
  putenv('TTRSS_SMTP_SECURE=tls');

To configure the application to use other third-party SMTP services for outgoing email, such as SendGrid, refer to the FAQ.
