Configure SMTP

The Oracle Argus Cloud Service uses the SMTP configuration utility for e-mail transmission if it has been enabled and configured in the application.

To configure SMTP:

1. Navigate to Argus Console, System Configuration, and then to SMTP Configuration.
2. In the SMTP Configuration dialog box, enter the following parameters:
   • SMTP Server IP address or name
   • Port number (Default value is 25)
   • User name.
3. Select the Enable SMTP check box.
4. Enter the FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name).
5. In the Global From Address field, enter a valid e-mail address.
   When e-mails are sent from Oracle Argus Safety, the From address for all e-mails is set to the e-mail specified in the Global From Address field.
6. Select the Authentication mode for the SMTP configuration, from the drop-down list.
7. Enter the SMTP User Name used by the Argus Service to authenticate with for SMTP Emailing.
8. Enter the SMTP Password used by the Argus Service to authenticate with for SMTP Emailing.

   Note:

   This field is required when Basic Authentication is selected as the authentication method.
9. Select the Custom SMTP Header check box to customize the SMTP header.
10. 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.
