I wrote Exit Shared Hosting Early , but this post is for those who have no reason to pay for web hosting. Drupal is allowed on many free hosting server such as http://www.66ghz.com . However, a free hosting service may not allow Drupal to send out emails due to protection against spamming. We want Drupal to send emails at least on two occations: to authenticate user during registration to email user via contact form There is a work around to solve this problem. Microsoft Live.com opens its SMTP server for those who have Hotmail account. And Drupal has a SMTP Authentication Support module that can utilize any SMTP server including Live.com's. You need to set the following in the module configuration: SMTP server settings SMTP server: smtp.live.com SMTP port: 587 Use encrypted protocol: Use TLS SMTP Authentication Username: Your Hotmail email address i.e. foo@live.com Password: Your Hotmail password * (*) One thing to note here is that you have to specify your Hotmail password.
