Supported e-mail protocols
The product supports Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP).
SMTP
● SMTP is a set of rules that define the interaction between programs that send and receive e-mail. In order
for the product to send documents to e-mail, it must be connected to a LAN that has access to an e-mail
server that supports SMTP. The SMTP server must also have Internet access.
●
If you are using a LAN connection, contact your system administrator to obtain the IP address or host name
for your SMTP server. If you are connecting through a DSL or cable connection, contact the internet service
provider to obtain the SMTP server IP address.
LDAP
●
LDAP is used to gain access to a database of information. When the product uses LDAP, it searches a global
list of e‑mail addresses. As you begin to type the e‑mail address, LDAP uses an auto-complete feature
that supplies a list of e‑mail addresses that match the characters you type. As you type additional
characters, the list of matching e‑mail addresses becomes smaller.
●
The product supports LDAP, but a connection to an LDAP server is not required in order for the product to
be able to send to e‑mail.
NOTE: If you need to change the LDAP settings, you must change them using the Embedded Web Server.
