Thread:Project:Support desk/E-mail functions extremely slow/reply (3)

However, there is no guarantee that this will be faster. In either case, the speed of the mail server is a big factor.
 * The 'host' field is the mail server to be used
 * The 'IDHost' field is the domain in the email address (for example, the domain 'example.com' in 'example@example.com')
 * The 'port' field is the port on which MediaWiki will attempt to connect to the mail server
 * The 'auth' field is whether it will try an authenticated connection or not
 * The 'username' and 'password' fields are the full email address and the password, respectively.
