Mail Settings

• Recipient eMail Address: the email address that all messages will be sent to, usually an Internet email address, for example my.name@.mydomain.com. The eMail Recipient drop-down list contains a few of the more popular SMS addresses, for example "number@vtext.com" sends an SMS message to a Verizon cellphone. To have email sent to your cellphone as an SMS message, replace "number" with your 10-digit cellphone number for example 1234567890@MyCellphoneMessagingService.com. Most Pager service providers also provide an email to pager service, check with your Pager service provider for the correct email address.
• CC Copy To Address: a second email address that all messages will be sent to, usually an Internet email address.
• eMail "From" Address: the email address that messages appear to come from. It is recommended that you set this to an address which includes domain and subdomain, otherwise your mail server may not forward the message. For example, GPUManager@mydomain.com

Mail Server (SMTP)

This is the configuration for your SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) Mail Server. These settings will typically be provided by your network administrator or Internet service provider.

The Message Status area shows the results when using the "Test Message" button.

Test Message

The "Test Message" button verifies that email is configured correctly by attempting to send a simple text message to the eMail Recipient.
