SMTP Configuration

The Oracle Argus Safety Service and the Interchange Service use the SMTP configuration utility for e-mail transmission if it has been enabled and configured in Argus Safety. Case Letters are also sent using SMTP.

To configure SMTP:

1. Navigate to Argus Console > System Configuration > SMTP configuration.
2. When the SMTP Configuration dialog box appears, enter the following parameters:
   • SMTP Server IP address or name
   • Port number (Default value is 25)
   • User name
3. Check the Enable SMTP checkbox.
4. Enter FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name).
5. Enter a valid e-mail address in the Global From Address field. When e-mails are sent from Oracle Argus Safety, the From address for all e-mails is set to the e-mail specified in Global From Address.
6. Click Validate and Save, to connect to the e-mail server as per the configuration data. If the connection is successful, then the configuration data is saved and a test e-mail is sent. If the connection is not successful, the error is displayed in the Status field and the configuration is not saved.
   

   All e-mail messages sent using the following processes are sent as Confidential:

   • AG Service: Bulk Transmit Email
   • AG Service: General Email
   • ESM Service: Business / User / IT Email

   The Audit Log tracks updates to this field.
