Default SMTP server

By default, the system sends all email messages from Protemos own email server. But you can change this and make the system use your own server.

To do so, go to the Settings => SMTP server menu:

It will open the Update SMTP server configuration page where you can define the settings of your own SMTP server (SMTP — Simple Mail Transfer Protocol — TCP/IP protocol used in sending and receiving e-mail):
