There is no VirtueMart 3.6.5 - it is obviuous from the pic that you are asking about Joomla and not VirtueMart.   https://docs.joomla.org/Portal:Beginners

To set up SMTP mail:  https://pcmshaper.com/blog/14-joomla/111-joomla-3-smtp

If this is indeed Joomla 3.6.5 then you should update to Joomla 3.7.5 as that old version of Joomla is insecure.  https://www.joomla.org/announcements/release-news/5711-joomla-3-7-5-release.html
