What the test email checks

• Connection to your SMTP server (or the built-in relay)
• Authentication with your credentials
• Delivery to the recipient address

If the test fails

• Check your SMTP host, port, and credentials
• For Gmail: use an App Password, not your regular password
• Check that port 587 (or 465) is not blocked by your hosting provider
