Overview

This will guide you in configuring FTK Central to point to an Email Server to allow it to send out notification emails.



Requirements

You must have an SMTP-compliant email system, such as a POP3 mail server to receive notification messages from the application. Consult with your email administrator to obtain the necessary settings.



Procedure

  1. From the home page, click Settings from the top-right corner.
  2. Navigate to System Management tab.
  3. Click Email Server.
  4. Complete the following:
    • SMTP Server Configuration: The address of your SMTP mail server (for example, smtpserver.domain.com or server1).
    • SMTP Port: Port used by your SMTP server. Port 25 is the standard non-SSL SMTP port, but you should confirm with the email server administrator.
    • SMTP SSL: Defines whether your SMTP server requires TLS/STARTTLS.
    • Username: The username or email address of the sender's account.
    • Password: Password for the sender's account.
    • Email Sent From Address: The desired return email address for outgoing email.
    • Open Relay/No Credentials: Check this if your SMTP server doesn't require authentication to send email.
  5. Click Save.
