   Setting | Description
   --- | ---
   Server to use for outbound SMTP | The server can deliver outgoing messages via a corporate or Internet service provider's SMTP server, or can deliver messages directly to their destination (by looking up mail exchanger records in DNS). If using a specific SMTP server, specify its hostname or IP address. Otherwise leave this field blank.
   Destination port for outbound SMTP | If you have specified a server to use for outbound SMTP, select the destination port for outbound SMTP messaging: Port 25 (use cleartext; default) Port 465 (SSL encryption) Port 587 (TLS encryption)
   Mail Server User ID | If you are using secure SMTP (port 465 or 587), enter the user ID required by the SMTP server. This ID must be configured and licensed in the SMTP server.
   Mail Server Password | If you are using secure SMTP (port 465 or 587), enter the password required by the SMTP server. This password must be configured in the SMTP server.
   SMTP e-mail injection restrictions | Controls which networks will be allowed to send mail through this server via SMTP. Choose from one of the following three settings: Localhost only – accept e-mail only from applications installed on the server (default setting). Accept only from trusted networks – accept e-mail from trusted local networks that are directly connected to the LAN. (These networks are on the same subnet as the server’s private interface.) Accept from anywhere - accept all e-mail
   Forwarding address for administrative e-mail | By default, e-mail to the administrator is sent to the user " admin" at the domain name configured on the server. You can override the default by entering an e-mail address in this field. Note: RAID array event notifications are sent to this e-mail address. We recommend that you configure a valid address here.
   E-mail sent for events: | Check the system events for which you want to receive e-mail notifications. The e-mails are sent to the " admin" mailbox. To turn off e-mail notifications clear all the event boxes.
