Crucial Technologies has tasked you with configuring corporate email on multiple mobile devices for staff use. What protocol should be set up to enable outbound email communication from these mobile devices while the employees are away from the office?
SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) is the standard protocol used for sending emails across the Internet. It operates on port 25 (or port 587 for secure submission) and is used by mail servers to send and relay outgoing mail to other mail servers. SMTP is essential for email communication, enabling users to send messages to recipients on different email servers, handling everything from the routing to the delivery of emails.
