Email is an important part of MediaWiki's operation. Users are emailed when they register and on other various events, and users can also send emails to one another. Extensions also exist that do other email functions, like enabling users to add pages by emailing the page contents to the wiki.
The following pages provide information and links on using email:
- Manual:Email
- Manual:Configuration settings - a listing of settings related to email setup
- Manual:$wgSMTP - documentation on using a direct SMTP server for sending emails
- Help:Preferences - email options that users can set in their personal preferences

- Special:EmailUser - a special page on which a user can send an email to another user
