The SMTP server setting can be configured to enable email alerts where users will be able to receive notifications whenever a specific event takes place.
Steps to configure the SMTP Server:
- Provide the proper SMTP server name.
- Provide the appropriate port number as the communication of SMTP takes place using this port number.
- Provide the email ID through which the notification mail will be sent in the ‘From’ field.
- If the SMTP uses secure socket options, then select the appropriate one from the drop-down list; otherwise, set it to None in the SMTP secure socket options field.
- Provide the email through which the mail will be sent in the SMTP SenderEmailID field. Also, provide the corresponding password for the above sender email address in SMTP Sender Password.
- There is also an option to test the server details by clicking on the ‘Test’ button and the user will receive a test email if SMTP server details are correct.
Once the settings are saved successfully, a user starts receiving email alerts whenever an event occurs.
