SMTP Configuration Options

Attribute
Description
SMTP Enabled
Select true to enable Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP) messaging (email) to subscribers. SMTP notifications are triggered from policy action and sent through an SMS Relay (SMSR) function to an external mail transfer agent (MTA).
Note: There is no delivery receipt for the SMTP messages sent from the SMSR, only confirmation that it reached the configured MTA.
MTA Host
Enter the FQDN or IP address of the Mail Transfer Agent server, which accepts SMTP messages from the SMSR function.
MTA Port
Enter the port number on which the MTA server is listening for SMTP messages. The default port is 25.
MTA Username
Enter the system ID of the SMSR function. Sending the ID and password values authenticates the SMSR function as a trusted source.
Note: This value must be configured on the MTA.
MTA Password
Enter the password of the SMSR function. Sending the ID and password values authenticates the SMSR function as a trusted source.
Note: This value must be configured on the MTA.
Confirm MTA Password
Re-enter the password for verification.
Note: This is a new configuration setting for the SMTP connection.
Default From Address(es)
Enter the source address for an SMTP message. Enter up to five comma-separated static values, or up to five comma-separated references to custom fields in the subscriber profile. The default is none.
Note: The total number of To, CC, and BCC addresses is limited to five.
SMTP Connections
The number of SMTP connections. Enter a number from 1 through 10.
Note: SMTP connections can be increased to support a higher throughput. Contact My Oracle Support (MOS) for more information.
Default Reply-To Address(es)
Enter the email address automatically inserted into the To field when a user replies to an email message. For most email messages, the From and Reply-To fields are the same, but this is not necessarily so. If no Default Reply-To is specified here, the From address is used. Optionally, enter a static email address to use for Reply-To.
The default is none.
Default CC Address(es)
Enter the copy address for an SMTP message. Enter up to five comma-separated static values, or up to five comma-separated references to custom fields in the subscriber profile. The default is none.
Note: The total number of To, CC, and BCC addresses is limited to five.
