7 Configure E-mail

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

7.1 Configure SMTP

  1. Navigate to Argus Safety 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. Select the Authentication type.

    • No Authentication—Disables the Username and Password

    • Basic Authentication—Enter the Username and Password (Default)

    • NTLM Authentication—Disables the Username and Password because the authentication of the OS user logged into the system is automatically passed.

  5. Check the Custom SMTP Header checkbox to pass a custom header into the SMTP Header when sending e-mails.

    This is used if you have a SMTP Solution that is depending on specific header information for routing.

  6. In the Custom SMTP Header field, enter a text (customer header) to insert into the SMTP Header.

  7. If a proxy server is required, enable the Proxy Server setting.

  8. Click OK.
