# Which Problems Are Solved
- Zitadel doesn't have a way to test SMTP settings either before
creating a new provider or once the SMTP provider has been created.
- Zitadel SMTP messages can be more informative for usual errors
# How the Problems Are Solved
- A new step is added to the new/update SMTP provider wizard that allows
us to test a configuration. The result is shown in a text area.
- From the table of SMTP providers you can test your settings too.
- The email address to send the email is by default the email address
for the logged in user as suggested.
- Some of the SMTP error messages have been changed to give more
information about the possible situation. For example: could not contact
with the SMTP server, check the port, firewall issues... instead of
could not dial
Here's a video showing this new option in action:
