The server will communicate directly with your SMTP server to send these emails.

The email address that the email will be delivered to. Separate multiple email addresses with a comma.

 

Notification Email From

 

The email address of the email's sender

 

SMTP Server

 

The Address of your SMTP server.

 

SMTP Port

 

The port used for SMTP traffic. 25 is the default.

 

SMTP Authentication

 

satNone - No Authentication will be used

satDefault - Plain text authentication will be used.

satSASL - Simple authentication and security layer will be used - see Wikipedia.
This is the recommended Authentication type - it allows the NX Server and the SMTP server to automatically negotiate which authentication method will be used.

The username required to connect to the SMTP server if authentication is used.

 

SMTPPassword

 

The password required to connect to the SMTP server if authentication is used.
