SMTP Server

Full HTML Help

This procedure adds a SMTP server at a hierarchy level.

Prerequisites:

Perform these steps:

  1. Log in to the Admin Portal.

  2. Choose the relevant hierarchy.

    Note

    Configure the SMTP server at the hierarchy where you want to allow VOSS Automate to send email messages.

    You may only set up one SMTP server at each hierarchy level. The SMTP server will be available at the current hierarchy and below. For example, for a SMTP set up at a specific customer, the sites below that customer can use that SMTP server.

  3. Go to (default menus) Apps Management > SMTP Server.

  4. Click the toolbar Plus sign (+) to add a new SMTP server.

  5. On the SMTP Server form, fill out details for the new SMTP server in the form fields:

    Field Description
    Name The SMTP server name.
    Description A description for the email account.
    Port The port number.
    Secure

    Relevant only for SSL connections to the SMTP server.

    Select the checkbox (enable) to use the SSL protocol for connections to the SMTP server.

    Default is disabled (checkbox is left clear), for TLS and unsecure logins to the SMTP server.

    Username The username credential for establishing a connection to the SMTP server.
    Password The password credential for establishing a connection to the SMTP server.
  6. Save your changes.
