collections save and categorize content based on your preferences this document describes the options for sending mail from a virtual machine vm instance and provides general recommendations on how to set up your instances to send email using standard email ports google cloud does not place any restrictions on traffic sent to external destination ip addresses using destination tcp ports 587 or 465 the implied allow egress firewall rule allows this traffic unless you ve created egress deny firewall rules that block it due to the risk of abuse connections to destination tcp port 25 are blocked when the destination is external to your vpc network this includes using smtp relay with google workspace however some projects do not have this restriction and do allow external smtp egress on port 25 for more information see blocked and limited traffic note subject to google cloud firewall rules connections to destination tcp port 25 are allowed within your vpc network a vpc connected using vpc network peering or an on premises network connected to your vpc network using cloud vpn tunnels or cloud interconnect attachments vlans choosing a third party email service to use in addition to using standard email ports having a trusted third party email provider such as sendgrid mailgun or mailjet improves your ip reputation score sendgrid mailgun and mailjet offer a free tier for compute engine customers to set up and send email through their servers if you don t have a google workspace account use these third party partners to take advantage of features like click tracking analytics apis and other features to meet your email needs alternatively if you are familiar with google workspace and are already paying for a google workspace account that supports email you can set up a relay service to send email through google workspace note that gmail and google workspace enforce limits for email activity if you don t have a google workspace account or don t want to use google workspace or a third party mail provider you can set up your own email server on an instance by using a non standard port you can choose any ephemeral port that isn t blocked by compute engine to use sendgrid mailgun or mailjet follow the instructions for sending email using sendgrid sending email using mailgun or sending email using mailjet to use a google workspace domain follow the instructions for smtp relay service settings in the google workspace documentation smtp relaying through google workspace is only allowed through ports 465 or 587 port 25 is not supported through google workspace if you want to use your own email server on a custom port use the documentation specific to your email service to configure a custom email port setting up a firewall rule to allow outbound traffic on a custom port to allow outbound traffic through a custom port you need to set up a firewall rule for example the following steps set up a rule that allows outbound traffic on port 2525 replace port 2525 with the custom port of your choice in the google cloud console go to the create a firewall rule page go to create a firewall rule choose a name for the firewall rule under network select the network that is hosting the vm instance that you intend to send email messages from under direction of traffic select egress under targets choose the appropriate target for this rule for example you might choose specified target tags if you want the rule to apply to instances that have a specific tag under destination filter set 0 0 0 0 0 if you want to allow egress traffic from the vm instance to any destination if you want to limit the destination enter another ip range here under protocols and ports select specified protocols and ports select tcp and enter 2525 click create to save your changes sending mail through corporate mail servers in some cases you might have a corporate mail server that is already running an email service for you if you need to send mail through a corporate mail server but are blocked by the port restrictions described at the top of this page you can use a vpn to bypass these restrictions this method requires running a vpn client on your compute engine cluster and a vpn server on your corporate network router this setup lets your instance appear inside your corporate firewall and allows unrestricted access to your corporate mail server there are security implications for this configuration and you should ensure that your compute engine instance has access to only the services it requires and nothing more what s next send emails from your instance using sendgrid send emails from your instance using mailgun send emails from your instance using mailjet read the google workspace domain documentation to learn how to use the smtp relay
