SMTP configuration changes
SMTP configuration has been enhanced to avoid blocked emails sent from Oracle Argus cloud
due to incorrect or incomplete configurations.
- The layout of SMTP Configuration under Console > System Configuration > SMTP Configuration has been enhanced to group configuration for better readability and understanding.
- A new Global From Address mandatory field has been added to accept an email address. When emails are sent from Oracle Argus Safety, the From address field for all the emails is set to the Global From Address. The former From Address field value is now populated in the Reply To field to maintain the existing functional behavior.
- The FQDN field is now mandatory.
- The Save button has been renamed as Validate and Save.
The application attempts to send a test email to the email address configured in the From Address. If the email fails, the configuration is not saved. You must enter a valid email address to save the configuration.
The test email takes into account proxy configuration if configured in the proxy settings. The FQDN is also validated with a DNS server however if this fails, the configuration is still saved.
