Hi,
is there a Step by Step HowTo, what i have to do, so that Proxmox-4 can send all the (root) Emails to a external Email Adress (SMTP) ?




It would be great and helpful if you could make this Configuration in the Web-Gui (sender, SMTP-Host, Port, Security SSL/TLS, SMTP-Auth, Username, Password, Auth-Method).
 
Hi
The recommend way for this to setup the postfix mail server installed within proxmox whith an outgoing mail gateway ( you can use for instance google smtp server if you have a gmail accoutn, and you don't send > 1000 messages a day)
You can find a detailed howto here:

I just want to add that for correct work in Proxmox you need to install libsasl2-modules module:
apt-get install libsasl2-modules

After this everything works great!
