Hallo I created my Ghost BlogPage with OneClick Installation. After installation, I created ghost user as Admin. I worked good.

Now I want to log in and post something but I do not work. I cannot log in! I am sure with my usermail and password but it doesn’t work! When i try to use Password Forget option to get new password, it says: **Failed to send email. ** I don’t know where is the problem. Can anyone help me?

Hi there @Cac,

In order to be able to use any email functionality for your Ghost application, you would need to configure SMTP.

To do that you could follow the steps from the official documentation here on how to set up your SMTP settings:
