Mail Server Settings

This function helps you configure the mail server. Mail notification, such as alarms notification by mail, is enabled only when the mail server is configured.

The system allows you to configure a default mail server and a third-party mail server.

In the default mail server configuration, the Require Authentication setting must be the same as the setting on the mail server. If the mail server performs identity authentication before sending mails, you must select Require Authentication. Typically, mail servers do not perform identity authentication before mail sending, and do not select Require Authentication.
