Sending mail without domain name

rated 0 times [ 5] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 45008 / 2 Years ago, mon, december 13, 2021, 3:55:09

We have a server, we are using this for backups and other cronjobs. I would like to send mail to the users when one of their cronjobs or backups has ended. Is it possible to do this if I don't have a domain name?

Yes it is possible to send emails without having a domain name, if you currently make use of Gmail you can use your existing Gmail account to send emails as desired. This is a great tutorial which can help you configure it all:

This is one example of how to do it, you can use other email accounts it is not restricted to Gmail, but I believe this to be the most common.
