Configuring outgoing e-mail

You must configure outgoing e-mail if you intend to use the Alerts or AutoSend features.

1Gather the following information. (Your organization's network or e-mail administrator typically provides the information that is required to configure outgoing mail.)

●The TCP/IP address of the simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP) mail server on your network. The EWS uses the SMTP server TCP/IP address to relay e-mail messages to other computers.

●The e-mail domain name suffix that is used to address e-mail messages within your organization.

2Select the Enable Outgoing E-mail check box.

3Type the SMTP server TCP/IP address in the SMTP Server text box.

4Type the domain name in the Domain Name text box.

5Click Apply to save the changes.

Configuring incoming e-mail

You should configure incoming e-mail if you intend to request information pages from the product by using e-mail messages. For more information, see Sending e-mail commands to the product.

1Establish a Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) mailbox account for the product on a mail server within your organization's network.

Each POP3 account requires a user name and a password. The user name combined with the product domain name (which is specified in the outgoing mail configuration) is the e-mail address for the product. For example, if the POP3 mailbox account user name is "product" and the POP3 server is "hp.com", the product e-mail address is "product@hp.com".

NOTE Each product that is configured for incoming mail must have its own POP3 mailbox account on your network's e-mail server. The POP3 mailbox accounts are typically configured by your organization's network or e-mail administrator.

CAUTION Make sure that you do not use your personal e-mail account. Doing so could cause all of your e-mail to be deleted. You would receive no notification that this deletion had taken place.

2Select the Enable Incoming E-mail check box.

3Type the TCP/IP address of the POP3 mail server in the POP3 Server text box.

4Type the user name and password for the product mailbox account, and then click Apply to save the changes.
