After some small research, it is known to use his gmail account to send emails directly from the interface of phpbb3, using gmail smtp server.
Here's how:

In the administration panel, in the left menu, click "Settings for e-mails under the heading" Communication ".
In "General Settings, select" messaging via e-mail forum: enabled "
In "SMTP Settings", choose "Yes" to "use an SMTP server for sending e-mails.
Address on the server:

tls://smtp.gmail.com

Server port: 465
Identification method: PLAIN
SMTP username: your gmail id in the form: "abc@gmail.com"
SMTP password: your gmail password.

Save it all, and normally you should be able to use gmail to send mails to all users of your forum.

enable pop mail in the gmail account settings online (log into www.gmail.com) simply enter these settings into any mail client, and use as your default smtp server for all accounts.

Incoming Mail (POP3) Server - requires SSL:
your.isps.pop3.server.com

You can set Gmail as your mail through the SMTP server of your choice, usually one that is provided by the service provider who also provides you with your personal email address. It happens in the Gmail settings page "Accounts", click on the link "edit info" from the email address concerned.
