I think you can apply an Google App account for your info.com so you can use email address of mywebsite@info.com

Site EmailEmail address from which your users will receive notifications and mass mailing.The site say: Email address from which your users will receive notifications and mass mailing. -
Why have users mails with another email adress?

Because sometimes site mail act as a sending-only email, it won't receive incoming mails, you should know those noreply@info.com email, that's what "site mail" means here, it will only used to send welcome email or activation letter to users through mail script (like PHP Mail). So basically it can be a fake email, cause it will not receive email.


If you installed your oxwall on some hosting service, basically they have email service, you can create an email address, such as noreply@yourwebsite.com, ans use it as site mail, you don't need the SMTP at all, oxwall will send email through PHP Mail script from your site mail address.
