E-mail settings

In this control panel section you can define the mail server options to use when attempting to send an e-mail message. They are useful when the Debug mode is set to send the log to e-mail, send e-mail triggers, or any other component that makes use of the mail server.

The following options can be set:

 

  1. In the Mail server text-box enter the IP address or hostname of your mail server; if the mail server resides on the same machine as the web-server, use localhost.
  2. In the Port text-box enter the SMTP port used by your server. This is the outgoing port, and not the POP3 one.
  3. In the Username text-box, enter the username for the mail server.
  4. In the Password text-box enter the mail server password, for the user specified in the text-box above.
  5. In the Default sender text-box enter an e-mail address to be used in the From field, when no other option has been specified.
  6. The three buttons on the right of the interface offer you the next functionalities:
    · Click
    OK when you are done configuring the dialog box.
    · Click
    Cancel to exit without changing the e-mail settings.
    · The Help button takes you to this help page.

The setting specified above are valid only for the currently selected site.
