Assigning Parameter Overrides to Communications Driver Profiles

You assign parameter overrides to the profile. To assign these overrides, you use the information that you gather during the planning process. For more information, see Setup Information for Siebel Email Response.

Some driver parameters have no default value. If a parameter is required, then you must assign the value as a profile parameter override when you create the profile.

If you use the Internet SMTP/IMAP Server or Internet SMTP/POP3 Server driver in an environment that supports multiple email servers, then you must create different profiles for this driver. Each profile includes a different value for the SMTP Server parameter, which identifies the name of the server.

This task is a step in Process of Setting Up Communications Driver Profiles.

To assign parameter overrides to a communications driver profile

1. Navigate to the Administration - Communications screen, then the Communications Drivers and Profiles view.
2. In the Communications Drivers list, select Internet SMTP/POP3 Server or Internet SMTP/IMAP Server.
3. Click the Profiles view tab, and select the appropriate profile.
4. In the Profile Parameter Overrides list, create a new record, and add the necessary parameter override fields:
   1. In the Name drop-down list, select the name of the driver parameter for which you want to change the value.

      If you cannot see the entire name in the drop-down list, then move your cursor over it to make the full name appear. For descriptions of driver parameters, see Parameters for Internet SMTP/IMAP Server Driver and Internet SMTP/POP3 Server Driver.

   2. Complete the Value field.
