Configuring your E-mail server: Alerts Tab
In order for PSV to send out device related alerts via email, you must first enter
the necessary information such as the address of your email server, username,
password, the email address of the recipient, etc.
Enter the desired Email Server Address and SMTP server port (default port number
is 25 and 456 or 587 if using SSL/ TLS).
Select the appropriate email sending method. PSV provides 4 methods that define
how the email message is sent:
Method 1
–
This is the Default setting. It uses a SMTP library from IP Works
Method 2
–
Permits streaming. Emails are sent without buffering once the
connection is established
Method 3
–
Uses Webmail library from .NET 1.1
Method 4
–
Content of email is saved as a file attached to an email message
Method 1 is recommended, but you may try methods 2, 3 and 4 if emails are not
successfully sent using the default setting.
If your email server requires authentication, indicate the appropriate username
and password in the fields provided. Click the
TLS / SSL
checkbox if your
organization uses these communication protocols.
Enter the email address of the recipient in the Admin Email field.
