Usage

You can refer to this KB when you want to configure a Gmail Account for Mail Notifications in Bitbucket Server.

Configuring

Go to the Mail server configuration in the Administration page.

Configure according to your needs:

Hostname: smtp.gmail.com
Port: 587
Username: your_email@gmail.com
Password: ********
Always use SSL/TLS: Yes
E-mail From: your_email@gmail.com

2-step verification


Notice that if the Gmail user has 2-step verification enabled, he/she will need to generate a password for an application (in this case Bitbucket Server) and use this application password - not the account password. Please refer to the guide below for more information:

If the resolution does not work, please get in touch with Atlassian Support.
