The settings:

  • Server: The IP address or fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the SMTP server.
    • If your domain has an MX record configured, you can use the KeyControl appliance to relay mail by setting the IP address to 127.0.0.1. This is the default behavior.
  • Port:The mail server port
  • Login:This field is optional
  • Password:This field is optional
  • Sender: The sender name and email address.
  • SSL:If your server requires SMTP Secure (SMTPS), enable this option.

It is recommended that you test email settings by clicking the Send Test Email button.

NOTE: If you check the Disable E-mail Notifications checkbox, you can only recover Admin Key Parts through the Alerts tab.

For details on Admin Key Parts, review the section KeyControl Backup and Restore.
