title: OpenERP 7.0 configure mail servers
body: <p>I have a problem configuring Outgoing Mail Servers.</p>
  
  <p>When I click "<code>Test Connection</code>", I see "<code>Connection test succeeded! Everything seems properly set up!</code>", but when I try to create user, and I click "<code>Send reset password instructions by email</code>", I've got a message "<code>Cannot send email: no outgoing email server configured. You can configure it under Settings/General Settings.</code>"</p>
  
  <p>I tried with various smtp servers and I got a clue when trying gmail smtp.</p>
  
  <p>Google asked me:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>You can switch to an app made by Google such as Gmail to access your
    account (recommended) or change your settings at
    <a href="https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps" rel="nofollow">https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps</a> so that your
    account is no longer protected by modern security standards.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>When I switched off the "<em>modern security standards</em>" I managed to send reset password instructions, however I can't use gmail for OpenERP.</p>
  
  <p>I run OpenERP on my Synology NAS and there is something that smtp servers don't like. They allow to connect, but wouldn't allow to send emails.
  IP is not and issue, as I tried smtp settings from account I actually have set up in my Outlook.</p>
  
  <p>I will welcome any idea to solve it.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
