What is Email Server?

If you select Email as the endpoint of an alarm, you need to set an email server. Then alarm messages are sent to the email server.


Add an Email Server

On the main menu of ZStack Cloud, choose Settings > System Setting > Email Server. On the Email Server page, click Add Email Server. Then, the Add Email Server page is displayed.

On the displayed page, set the following parameters:
  • Name: Enter a name for the email server.
  • Description: Optional. Enter a description for the email server.
  • User Name: Enter a user name.
  • Password: Enter the password for the user.
    Note: If you add a third-party email server to the Cloud, you need to enable the SMTP service in advance. In addition, enter the authentication code in the Password field.
  • Email Server Type: Valid value: smtp.
  • Email Server: Enter the IP address of the email server.
  • Port: Enter the port of the email server. Default value: 25.
  • Encryption Type: Optional. Select an encryption type to encrypt data communications of the email server port. Valid values: STARTTLS, SSL/TLS, and NONE.
    • STARTTLS is selected by default. The corresponding port is 25 by default.
    • If you select SSL/TLS, the corresponding port is 465 by default.
    • If you do not need encrypted communications, select NONE.

After you click OK, the system automatically checks whether the user name, password, email server IP address and port, and encryption type parameters are correct. The response time is expected to be no longer than five seconds. If a parameter setting is incorrect, modify the setting based on the tips propped out on the upper-right corner of the page and then submit again. If the configuration settings are correct, you are automatically redirected to the Email Server page. The email server is successfully added to the Cloud.
Note:

Configure the settings as needed. Contact the email server provider for support in case of any email server related problems.
