Outgoing Email Settings

Top  Previous  Next

These settings are used for any outgoing emails sent from Commit Server, either by the Commit Email Connector emails or by the Commit Email Alerts.

 

Note that 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.

 

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

 

Test SMTP Connection - click this 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.
