Email Configuration Button

This button opens the Email Configuration dialog box:  Once this box has opened, it allows you to select the SMTP Host, User ID, Port, who to send to, and who to send Carbon Copies to and what email address to send from.

SMTP Host

The host name or IP address of the SMTP mail server to send alert emails to.

User ID

The username to authenticate with the SMTP mail server. This is normally not needed. (Optional)

Port

TCP/IP connection port. It is recommended that you leave the default setting unless your email server requires otherwise.

To

The email address of the person who is to receive the email.  This user sometimes needs to be a valid user on the SMTP mail server. You may add multiple email addresses in this field. Use a semicolon (;) as a delimiter.

CC

The email address of the person who is to receive a Carbon Copy of the email. You may add multiple email addresses in this field. Use a semicolon (;) as a delimiter.

From

The email address that will appear in the From field of the email. This email does not need to be a valid email. For example it can be used to identify the Job that generated the email by using the %JobName% variable (i.e. %JobName%@MyCompany.com).

Send Test Email

Clicking on the Test Connection button will send a test email to the configured email address(es) and let you know if PeerSync was able to successfully connect and send an email via the configured SMTP mail server. It is highly recommended that you test the configuration before saving the options.
