Email, How this works?

[dcadenasa]

Hello guys,

 

I just got my domain and I want to configure my email. I have created an email account in my domain provider, but when I try to send an email to my test customer from Tools->Send Email, this does not get it. I am hosting my own oscommerce on Linux SUSE 10 and Apache 2.0.

 

I set my email at Configuration->My Store. The email configuration I have is:

SMTP

CRLF

false

false

true

 

Do I need to configure anything on my Linux? or with the email account that I created on the domain provider is enough?

 

I am very new to emails and networking issues.

 

Thanks a lot,
