CiviCRM offers several options to send emails. The default option should work fine on linux systems. If you are using windows, you probably need to enter settings for your SMTP/Sendmail server. You can send a test email to check your settings by clicking "Save and Send Test Email". If you're unsure of the correct values, check with your system administrator, ISP or hosting provider.
If you do not want users to send outbound mail from CiviCRM, select "Disable Outbound Email". NOTE: If you disable outbound email, and you are using Online Contribution pages or online Event Registration - you will need to disable automated receipts and registration confirmations.
If you choose Redirect to Database, all emails will be recorded as archived mailings instead of being sent out. They can be found in the civicrm_mailing_spool table in the CiviCRM database.
