Using E-mail notification with user authentication
(For MFC-8690DW, MFC-8880DN and MFC-8890DW) 14
To use the E-mail notification function via secure SMTP server that requires a user authentication, you need
to use POP before SMTP or SMTP-AUTH method. These methods prevent an unauthorized user from
accessing the mail server. You can use Web Based Management (web browser), BRAdmin Professional and
Web BRAdmin to configure these settings.
Note
You need to match the settings of POP3/SMTP authentication with one of the E-mail servers. Contact your
network administrator or your internet service provider about the configuration before using.
How to configure the POP3/SMTP settings using Web Based Management (web browser).

b Type “http://printer’s IP address/” into your browser (where “printer’s IP address” is
the printer’s IP address or the node name.).
