To configure the FileFlow Server to use an SMTP Server for email sending, please select the SMTP Server option on the Account Settings window.
Email Server - Enter the Email server address. The maximum length of characters for the Email Server field is 128 characters.
Port Number - Enter the correct SMTP port number for the mail server. The Port number must be between 1 and 65536.
NOTE: If the SMTP server requires SSL connection, please check the SMTP Server email settings for the correct port number. The default port number for SSL/TLS is 587.
Using SSL/TLS - Enable this checkbox if SSL/TLS authentication is required by the mail server.
Sender Email - This must be a valid email address with the defined domain. Email sender is the actual email address from where the message is sent.
Authentication
Account settings might be required for authentication by the SMTP server. Please select the Authentication method from the Authentication dropdown menu.
Select the Use the following login information option to enter the account name and password. The FileFlow will use these settings automatically every time when sending an email.
The Send emails without username and password option is designed for SMTP servers that allow email sending without a username and password. Please note that the majority of email senders require a username and password.
Username / Email - Enter the user’s email address.
Password - Enter the related password.
Please check the SMTP server documentation for the required settings. Check the option of “Using SSL/TLS" if the SMTP server requires encrypted communication (for example, Yahoo, Gmail). Currently TLS encryption is supported on port 587.
