When you create a job, you can select existing email alerts to apply to the job or you can create new email alerts and apply them to the job.  This Preferences page lists the existing email alerts.  From this page, you can view, create, edit, and delete email alerts.  However, you cannot edit or delete an email alert while it is applied to a job.  See Email Alerts in the Basic Concepts section for more information about email alerts.

Tip:  If you are performing maintenance, you can temporarily disable an email alert by clicking in the Temporarily Disabled column in the Email Alerts table and selecting Yes.  No email alerts will be sent for that type of alert until you reenable the alert.

Note:  An SMTP email connection must be configured before email alerts can be sent.  See Email Configuration for information about configuring SMTP email settings.
