# How to Set Up SMTP for Email via Office 365 Mail

> Office 365, provided by Microsoft, offers a subscription\-based email service. To use Office 365 for sending emails via SMTP, configure your SMTP settings as described below:

## SMTP Server Details

* **SMTP Port:** `587`

## Authentication Information

* **SMTP User Name:** Your Office 365 email address (e.g., `yourname@yourdomain.com`).
* **SMTP Password:** Your Office 365 password.

## Additional Information

* Office 365 SMTP requires the use of TLS encryption on port 587. Ensure that your email client or application is set up to use STARTTLS as the encryption method.
