Email Report

The Email Report settings defines the various email setting that %edition_name% will use to generate email reports or usage reports to user.

The "Host" entry defines the SMTP server that will be used by %edition_name% to deliver its email reports. If you are using a SMTP server that is not running on SMTP standard TCP port (port 25), please specify your custom TCP port number for SMTP service in the "Port".

You are required to fill in the "Login name" and "Password" entries if the SMTP server you are using required user authentication before accepting mail delivery requests. However, if you have enabled the Continuous Backup feature, the Login name and Password are mandatory regardless of the SMPT server requirement. There is a [Connect] button to test the connection to the SMTP server. The testing result will be displayed next to the test button.
