# Email setup
- To use Gitea's built-in Email support, update the `app.ini` config file [mailer] section:
```ini
[mailer]
ENABLED = true
HOST = mail.mydomain.com:587
FROM = gitea@mydomain.com
USER = gitea@mydomain.com
PASSWD = `password`
```
- Restart Gitea for the configuration changes to take effect.
- To send a test email to validate the settings, go to Gitea > Site Administration > Configuration > SMTP Mailer Configuration.
For the full list of options check the [Config Cheat Sheet]({{< relref "doc/advanced/config-cheat-sheet.en-us.md" >}})
