Step-by-Step Setup Guide

  1. Sign up for an SMTP2GO account
    Go to smtp2go.com and create a free account.
  2. Verify your sending domain
    After signing up, add and verify your sending domain (e.g., @yourdancestudio.com). You’ll be asked to add some DNS records (SPF, DKIM) — your domain registrar can help if needed.
  3. Get your SMTP credentials
    Under Settings > SMTP Users, copy your SMTP username and password. These are what you’ll use inside DSM.
  4. Enter settings into DSM
    In DSM, go to Settings > Email / SMTP and enter the following:
    • SMTP Server: mail.smtp2go.com
    • Port: 587 (TLS) or 465 (SSL)
    • Username: your SMTP2GO username
    • Password: your SMTP2GO password
    • From Email: your verified studio email (e.g. info@yourstudio.com)
  5. Send a test email
    Try sending a message to yourself from DSM to confirm everything is working. If needed, check SMTP2GO’s dashboard for delivery logs or error messages.

Tips for Best Deliverability

  • Make sure you’ve completed DNS verification (SPF/DKIM).
  • Use a consistent “From Name” and “From Email.”
  • Avoid spammy subject lines and always include an unsubscribe link in bulk emails.
