I have installed WeBWorK on a linux-based VSP, using the excellent installation script, which basically took care of everything for me. I didn't configure email at the time, as I had no email server installed or configured.
Do I need to go into WeBWorK config files to configure a server (I intend to use the external public google server smtp.gmail.com), or can I just configure that for my VSP and assume WeBWorK will use whatever server it can find?
Thanks,

You'll need to specify your smtp server in the file
webwork2/conf/site.conf
There is a section on configuring the mail capabilities.
It should be pretty easy.

Thanks for that. Two more questions: can you specify login name, password and port on the server line, something like:
or, if I'm using nullmailer, something like
in which case the smtp sender points to a process, rather than a mail address?
Thanks again,

$mail{smtpSender}='mailserver.mail.com --login=myname --pass=mypasswod --port=11111'or, if I'm using nullmailer, something like
$mail{smtpSender}=nullmailerin which case the smtp sender points to a process, rather than a mail address?
Thanks again,
