SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) connections are used to send emails over the internet by allowing communication between email clients and servers. When you create an SMTP connection in Prophecy, the user credentials you provide are used to establish the connection. This user will always be the sender of an email when you use the Email gem with this connection.Documentation Index
