mail not send through workflow?

Question

Hi To All,

I am creating a work flow that send the mail manually on a document in document library.

I am follows the steps at

http://www.documentmanagementworkflowinfo.com/sample-sharepoint-workflows/sharepoint-designer-workflow-allow-users-enter-email-address-before-running-workflow.htm

but when the workflow run from sharepoint it runs well there but mail not send to the recipient.

What is the problem? Is there is any SMTP require or any other issue?

Regards, Girish

You'll need to verify the outbound SMTP server is setup correctly in Central Administration > Operations. If the server has been configured for SMTP, you can use localhost. If not, you'll need to find an email relay server that has been configured to send out emails.
