Outgoing Email Settings

Top  Previous  Next

The Outgoing Email settings are used for any outgoing emails sent from Commit Server.

 

Note: The Outgoing Email settings should be set only once for the Commit Server, so if you already defined this for the Email Alerts Server, you can skip this step.

 

The Outgoing Email settings should be set in the Outgoing Mail Server tab.

To reduce errors and improve security, it is strongly recommended to use SMTP authentication, with a user name and password for SMTP access.

 

Parameters:

 

SMTP Host - your Outgoing SMTP Mail Server

Port - the Outgoing SMTP port

My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication - if checked, must fill in the authentication details below:

User Name - the User Name to be used for SMTP authentication

Password - the password related to the specified User Name

 

Verification Tests (required!):

 

Test SMTP Connection - click this option to verify that your account is working. If there is missing or incorrect information, such as your password, you will be prompted to supply or correct it.

Send Test Email - Use this option to send an outgoing email using the settings you defined. After clicking it you need to specify the From email address and the To email address that will be used for sending the Test Email message.

 

After completing the Outgoing settings, move on to the next step > Setting up the Incoming Email Settings.
