Sending Emails

Most websites need to send emails, usually for password resets, admin notifications, etc. CodeRed provides a basic built-in email service for these purposes, using sendmail. By default, all WordPress sites hosted with CodeRed are automatically set up send mail using the CodeRed email service.

Aside from convenience, another advantage to the CodeRed email sending service is that it logs every outgoing message, to help you troubleshoot and audit your website. Outgoing messages can be viewed via SFTP in the /log/cr-sendmail/ directory.

Review the email technical reference to learn how the CodeRed email sending service works under the hood.

Logging

By default, Apache HTTP access and error logs are located in the logs/apache2/ directory (when accessed via SFTP).

If you would like to create custom logs, write those to file in /var/log/.

For details see Logging on CodeRed Cloud.
