MultiVOIP as Email Sender. When SMTP is used, the MultiVOIP has an email account (with Login Name and Password) on a mail server connected to the IP network.
Using this account, the MultiVOIP sends out email messages containing log report information. The “Recipient” of the log report email is ordinarily the VOIP administrator.
Because the MultiVOIP cannot receive email, you must set up a “Reply‐To” address. The “Reply‐To” address usually belongs to a technician with access to the mail server or MultiVOIP or both,
You can also set up the VOIP administrator the “Reply‐To” party.
The main function of the Reply‐To address is to receive error or failure messages regarding the emailed reports.
