The Problem
You want to set up an SMTP server to let you send mail out of your local instance of CQ5 author.The Solution
Set up a GMail account (or use your own if you feel comfortable where you are storing the information).The steps:
1. Go to the Felix Console
http://localhost:4502/system/console/configMgr
2. Scroll down and click to edit the Day CQ Mail Service OSGi config.
3. Enter the following details:
SMTP Server Host - smtp.gmail.com
SMTP Server Port - 465
SMTP User - your username (i.e. john.doe@gmail.com)
SMTP Password - your password
From Address - your email
SMTP Use SSL - true
4. Hit Save
5. Run a user through a workflow containing a group of which you are a member, or send out a newsletter to a group which you are a part of.
You should receive the email in your inbox.
It is worth noting that for production environments, you should set up a production grade SMTP service rather than use GMail.
