Is it possible to store the outbound mail settings in civicrm.settings.php? SMTP server IP address, port, user...

  • The reason is that depending on where the site is deployed (live, staging, local machine) other outbound mail settings should be defined.

  • Another approach is to use the API to edit the settings as part of a clone to staging / local machine script. Commented Nov 10, 2017 at 13:50

In civicrm.settings.php

global $civicrm_setting; $civicrm_setting['Mailing Preferences']['mailing_backend'] = [ 'outBound_option' => 0, 'smtpServer' => 'localhost', 'smtpPort' => 1025, 'smtpAuth' => false ];

No. Outbound mail settings are typically configured here: civicrm/admin/setting/smtp. They can't be overridden in civicrm.settings.php apart from to disable them completely by defining CIVICRM_MAIL_LOG, e.g.

define('CIVICRM_MAIL_LOG', '/var/log/civicrm_mail');

or

define('CIVICRM_MAIL_LOG', '/dev/null');

If you aren't interested in them.
