Control Panel Email Tab

The Email Window defines how IPCheck Server Monitor sends and receives emails

·      SMTP Server

·      Server—the domain name or IP Address of the SMTP server through which IPCheck Server Monitor sends email. This mail server must be configured as an SMTP relay that accepts mails from IPCheck Server Monitor and forwards the mails to the recipients.

·      HELO Ident—the string IPCheck Server Monitor sends to the mailserver for identification. Changes are only necessary for special mailservers, using the default should be fine.

·      Username—if the mailserver needs user authentication to accept emails enter the username of a valid account on the SMTP server

·      Password—if the mailserver needs user authentication to accept emails enter the password of the account above

·      Optional SMTP Backup Server—enter this information if you want to provide a second SMTP in case the first SMTP server becomes unavailable

·      E-Mail “From” Fields—Enter the email addresses and clear text names IPCheck Server Monitor should use as "FROM" addresses when sending emails

·      User Account—for emails sent to users regarding their accounts

·      User Notification—for notification emails sent to users

·      Admin Account—for emails sent to the admin

·      Admin Notification—for notification emails sent to the admin
