How to Configure the Mailjet Module

If you do not yet have a Mailjet account, it’s now time to create one! Simply click on the ‘Create your Mailjet account’ link on the Mailjet Settings page or click here to go to Mailjet directly.

Once you have created your Mailjet account, you can find your API (username) and Secret (password) Keys in the API Key Management section. You will need those to link your Mailjet Joomla extension with your actual Mailjet account.

To properly configure the Mailjet extension, you need to edit its settings, as well as the Mail Settings in the Joomla Global Configuration section.

Global Configuration

1. In the Joomla admin, click on ‘System’ → ‘Global Configuration’.

   

2. Go to the ‘Server’ tab.

   

3. You will see the ‘Mail Settings’ section there.

   

   You need to configure the Mail Settings the following way:

   • Send Mail: YES
   • Disable Mass Mail: NO
   • From E-mail: Enter a sender address that has been validated in your Mailjet account
   • From Name: Enter a From name of your choice
   • Mailer: SMTP Server
   • SMTP Host: in-v3.mailjet.com
   • SMTP Port: 465
   • SMTP Security: SSL/TLS
   • SMTP Authentication: YES
   • SMTP Username: Your Mailjet API Key
   • SMTP Password: Your Mailjet Secret Key

4. Once you have successfully entered the details, click on ‘Save’ to submit the information.

   

5. You can also test the settings by clicking on the ‘Send Test Email’.

   

   A test email will be sent from the ‘From Email’ address you have selected, to the same email address. If the configuration is incorrect, an email will not be sent at all.

Mailjet Settings

1. In the Joomla admin, click on ‘Components’ → ‘Mailjet’ → ‘Settings’.

   

2. You will access the Mailjet Settings section.

   

3. You need to connect your Mailjet account. Enter your API and Secret keys in the respective fields.

   

   Afterwards click on the ‘Save & Close’ to submit the changes.

   

4. If you want to test the settings of the Mailjet extension, tick the checkbox under ‘Send test mail now’ and enter a recipient email address.

   

The test email will be sent once you click on ‘Save & Close’. The sender address will be the ‘From Email’ you have selected in the ‘Global Configuration’ section.
