If your framework or app speaks SMTP, you can send through eSMS Mail without the HTTP API.

Get SMTP credentials

Under SMTP, create a credential. You'll get a host, port, username and password.

Configure your app

Host: send.esmsafrica.io
Port: 587 (STARTTLS)
Username: your SMTP username
Password: your SMTP password

Send From a verified domain, exactly like the API. DKIM signing is applied by our relay.
