E-mail Servers are resources that allow you to control the e-mail server from which PerfectForms™ sends its e-mail messages. Adding e-mail servers as resources at the account level allows you to override the overall system e-mail server and use a custom server to send form notifications and system e-mails (such as sending a password link, sending an API key and sign-up messages).
Note: You must have been granted Account permissions in order to create account resources.
|
| 1. | Go to the Settings dashboard. Click the New button and choose Email Server. |
| 2. | On the Email Server details screen, enter a Name for the server under the General section. |
| 3. | Under the Server section, enter the SMTP address in the Name field. The only Type currently supported is SMTP. |
| 4. | If the server requires secure authentication, check the Requires SSL box then enter the applicable e-mail username and password below. |
| 5. | In the User area, enter the Display Name and address that will be shown to the e-mail recipient on the incoming e-mail. |
| 6. | In the Reply to area, enter the Display Name and address that will be shown if the recipient choose to reply to the e-mail message. |
| 8. | After creating the new e-mail server resource, click the Test button to verify the set-up. You may specify a default e-mail server for this account by clicking Make Default. This default selection is the e-mail address by which system e-mails and notifications by e-mail will be sent unless otherwise overridden in the Notify behavior. If you do not specify an account-level default e-mail server, the system e-mail server will be used. |
