To configure e-mail notification

  1. Select the Send e-mail notifications check box to activate notifications.
  2. Under Send e-mail notifications, select the appropriate check boxes as follows:
  3. In the E-mail addresses field, type the destination e-mail address. You can enter several addresses separated by semicolons.
  4. In the Subject field, type the notification subject or leave the default %subject% variable. Other variables are not supported.

    Details. In the received e-mails, the default variable will be transformed into the following phrase: Task <task name> <task result> on machine <machine name>. You can type any text before or after the variable.

  5. In the SMTP server field, enter the name of the outgoing mail server (SMTP).
  6. In the Port field, set the port of the outgoing mail server. By default, the port is set to 25.
  7. If the outgoing mail server requires authentication, enter User name and Password of the sender's e-mail account.

    If the SMTP server does not require authentication, leave the User name and Password fields blank. If you are not sure whether the SMTP server requires authentication, contact your network administrator or your e-mail service provider for assistance.

  8. Click Additional e-mail parameters... to configure additional e-mail parameters as follows:
    1. From – type the name of the sender. If you leave this field empty, the messages will contain the sender's e-mail account in the From field.

    3. Some Internet service providers require authentication on the incoming mail server before being allowed to send something. If this is your case, select the Log on to incoming mail server check box to enable a POP server and to set up its settings:
      • Incoming mail server (POP) – enter the name of the POP server.
      • Port – set the port of the POP server. By default, the port is set to 110.
