SMTP Section

If you plan to use Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) mail server gateways, specify the appropriate parameters in this section.

When changes are made to most of the parameters in the SMTP section of the process scheduler configuration file (psprcs.cfg), the effect is immediate (even before the updated configuration file has been loaded by PSADMIN). This does not apply to SMTPTrace and SMTPSendTime. Changes to these settings are not dynamic. They require a domain reboot to take effect.

Note:

The Allow Dynamic Changes flag, located in the General Settings section of the configuration file, has no effect on the SMTP parameters. Changes to the SMTP parameters (except SMTPTrace and SMTPSendTime) are always dynamic.

See System and Server Administration: SMTP Settings for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) mail server gateway parameters and corresponding descriptions.

Parameter Description

SMTPServer

Specify the name of the corporate mail server gateway machine. Leave blank for an initial installation.

SMTPPort

Specify the port used by SMTP mail server gateways.

SMTPServer1

Specify the failover corporate mail server gateway machine. Leave blank for an initial installation.

SMTPPort1

Specify the port used by failover SMTP mail server gateways.

SMTPSender

Specify the sender’s internet address. This must be a valid internet address, such as USER1@XYZCORP.COM. Leave blank for an initial installation.

SMTPSourceMachine

Specify the sender’s source machine name and internet address in the form of MACHINE.XYZCORP.COM. Leave blank for an initial installation.

SMTPCharacterSet

Specify the character set used on the sender’s machine.

See System and Server Administration: SMTPTrace.

SMTPSendtime

Enter 1 to have messages contain a send time that is populated by the application server. Enter 0 to leave the send time blank and have it populated by the receiving gateway (depending on the gateway).

Implementing NT LAN Manager

PeopleTools supports NT LAN Manager (NTLM) as a primary authentication mechanism. NTLM is a suite of authentication and session security protocols used in various Microsoft network protocol implementations. To use NTML with PeopleTools, you need to add these parameters manually to the PSAPPSRV.CFG file and PSPRCS.CFG file in the SMTP settings section.

Parameter Description

SMTPNTLMEnable

Specify whether NTLM is enabled. Add true or false.

SMTPNTLMDomain

Specify the NTLM domain.

SMTPNTLMEnable1

Specify whether NTLM is enabled for the backup server.

SMTPNTLMDomain1

Specify the NTLM domain for the backup server.

Configuring SMTP Settings for Outbound Emails

You must configure the psappsrv.cfg or psprcs.cfg files using the SMTP Settings section that contains outbound email settings.

Parameter Description

SMTPSMIMEEncryption

Set to 1 to turn on S/MIME encryption. The default value is 0, which is used to turn off the encryption.

See System and Server Administration: SMTPSMIMEEncryption.

SMTPSMIMESignature

Set to 1 to turn on S/MIME digital signatures. The default value is 0, which is used to turn off the digital signatures.

See System and Server Administration: SMTPSMIMESign.

SMTPSMIMEHandling

Set to 0 to ignore encryption or signing errors (log only and send emails anyway), and set to 1 to reject emails if encryption or digital signing fails.

See System and Server Administration: SMTPSMIMEHandling.

SMTPSMIMEHandling1

This is the backup setting for SMTPSMIMEHandling.

See System and Server Administration: SMTPSMIMEHandling1.

SMTPSMIMEEncryption1

This is the backup setting for SMTPSMIMEEncryption.

See System and Server Administration: SMTPSMIMEEncryption1.

SMTPSMIMESignature1

This is the backup setting for SMTPSIMESignature.

See System and Server Administration: SMTPSMIMESign1.
