11.3. SMTP Server
SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. It is usually the main reason for subscribing
an account to an ISP, for sending and reading e-mail.
The SMTP Server represents the mail server used for sending e-mail (typically the one of the
ISP where we have subscribed an account).
First,
TB
OX
MS
connects to Internet (through an ISP connection) and then to the SMTP
Server.
Name: It is a free name, to recall when you create the alarm recipient.
Mail Server (SMTP): It is the IP address (or the name) of the outgoing e-mail Server. It
is the unique mail Server needed. The POP3 address, for incoming e-mail, is
not needed, as TB
OX
MS cannot receive e-mail.
E-mail address: It is the e-mail address of the TB
OX
MS. You can usually choose it when you
subscribe an account. This address will appear in the 'From:' when receiving
the mail.
.
In order to protect the mail server (and you) against spamming,
the ISP might to refuse sending e-mail if the address of the
originator is not known. Therefore, be careful to indicate here the
e-mail address you have received from your ISP.
Concerning e-mail,
TB
OX
MS is able to send e-mail
and not to read e-mail. That explains why we speak
only of SMTP and not POP3 (used for reading e-mail)
