I am not interested in switching to Microsoft.
I can import to gmail but cannot send from gMail.

Now since the migration to Exchange it does not work even if I update the SMTP settings. In the end I found that I was able to just use GoDaddy's SMTP servers and plug in my own "from" address which allowed me to send mail to any email address and to spoof the origination email address. I have been importing and sending email with my GoDaddy email addresses through GMail for a few years now with success. I was also given the workaround option of using their web email form which is totally not what the project I was working on could use and underscored the notion that GoDaddy did not fully understand what they talking about. I called their tech support and got conflicting information but I had heard enough to convince myself sending via Gmail was not a for sure supported service on GoDaddy's servers. I took code the exact same code that worked on a different hosting company's server and it failed on GoDaddy's server so I'm quite confident that the code was not the issue. The last time I tried doing this (maybe early 2011-ish) I was not able to programmatically send out from Gmail account on GoDaddy.

My ultimate goal was to have an email come into my inbox from with the necessry form field data, but no matter how you go your Host provider's security setting will ultimately determine your ability to do this.Īlso tried using google and hotmail smtp hosts (as I have an account with each) and same secirty restriction story, maybe a lesser known free web email provider that has lower security settings allowing full relay hosting (if so let me know) (only catch is, it takes away the ability to code a subscribe/unsubscribe XML database, as the form data is sent off to this inaccessable ASP file) So I may end up revert back to using relay hosting in ASP.NET This alternative can be used to send a pre-designated "form-mailer" email account all the web forms and it does work! but does require some -mailer setup on GoDaddy. Using the GoDaddy form-mailer, (Google Serach: "_gdForm/webformmailer.asp") There is an alternative for using the relay-host
They do this to stop spammers hijacking an account When using relay-hosting with Godaddy the email objects FROM email address MUST be a Godaddy "white Listed" email.
