SMTP — the application-layer protocol used to submit, transfer, and relay email between mail systems.
The mechanism participates in message creation, transfer, receipt, or storage. Its role depends on the delivery stage and whether it operates between a client and server or between mail servers.
Verify the server, port, encryption, authentication method, DNS records, and SMTP logs. For delivery errors, record the exact response code and the stage at which it occurred.
