This is already pre-configured in your account, give it a try.
Their Essentials plan (cheapest what they offer, $14,95 p/mo), only gives 3 days of Search email activity… this can never be enough, forcing you to buy more days. A dedicated IP must be purchased (price $89,95 p/mo).
Kingmailer SMTP offers a simple interface and much much faster setup to start sending, receiving and routing emails.

FAQ
Kingmailer is a cloud-based SMTP provider that acts as an email delivery engine, allowing you to send email without the cost and complexity of maintaining your own email servers. Kingmailer manages the technical details of email delivery, like infrastructure scaling, ISP outreach, reputation monitoring, and real-time analytics.
You can send 20 transactional emails to max 20 email recipients with your free account, which is perfect for testing purpose. If you need to send more than that, you can easily upgrade to a paid plan.
Every time you send one email to one recipient, it’s deducted as one email credit from your paid plan. This occurs whether the email is ultimately deferred or sent to spam by the inbox provider.
If you send more emails than your plan allows within a given billing period, you will be charged a small overage fee on a per-email basis. Any overage fees are added to your invoice for the following billing period.
