Email Server Tab

Email server configuration is required to support outgoing email messages sent from Reflection Gateway.

Test Connection

Tests whether the specified SMTP server can be reached at the specified port.

This test does not confirm that outgoing messages will be successful. After your email server configuration is complete, you can use the Preview feature on the Email Templates page to test an outgoing email.

This tests the current on-screen settings. These settings are not saved until you click Save.

Save

Saves the current settings. This button is not enabled until you have entered all required information.

Certificate information is saved automatically, but other edits are not saved until you click Save.

Moving to a new page without clicking Save cancels your edits.

Email Service

Select Enabled to enable email emails from Gateway Administrator.

SMTP server

The name or IP address of the outgoing email server.

This field and the other items on this page cannot be edited if Email service is Disabled.

Port

The listening port on the SMTP server.

This setting changes automatically when you change the Secure connection setting to match the standard port for each option. If your server uses a non-default port, change the port value after selecting your secure connection type.

UserID

Password

Some SMTP servers require user credentials to support sending outgoing messages. Use these fields to enter valid user credentials.

Sender address

Sets the global default for the sender address that appears in emails sent from Reflection Gateway. This value replaces the $GLOBAL_SENDER_ADDRESS$ token.

Depending on your email server configuration, you might need to use a valid email account, or you might be able to specify an arbitrary address such as noreply@gateway.com.

Sender name

Sets the global default for the user name that appears in emails sent from Reflection Gateway. This value replaces the $GLOBAL_SENDER_NAME$ token.

Some email servers might ignore this and use the actual name associated with the specified sender address.
