Email Server Settings
The SMTP Server Settings on
EFT's SMTP tab are completed automatically
when you define them in the Server Setup
Wizard during installation. You must configure the mail server
settings for the EFT to send email
notifications when Events
occur, including the address for the outgoing mail server, an address
for the administrator, and other details described below.
Microsoft recommends that you disable SMTP AUTH organization-wide or per mailbox (hosted in Office 365 or Microsoft 365). For more details, refer to the Microsoft topic at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/clients-and-mobile-in-exchange-online/authenticated-client-smtp-submission.)
In EFT v8.2 and later, SMTP can authenticate with the XOAuth2 method. XOAuth2 can be configured from the EFT administration interface, REST API, and COM API. The supported token providers are Gmail or Microsoft 365. Google provides Gmail service account credentials in a key file. An EFT administrator needs to specify a path to the key file (which works similar to EFT SSL certificates).
- SMTP does not support Unicode characters. Refer to Unicode Exceptions for details.
- The SMTP server settings in EFT should be propagated to the Advanced Workflow module for use in Email actions.
- If you want to change or verify these settings in the AW module, refer to Knowledgebase article at https://kb.globalscape.com/KnowledgebaseArticle11423.aspx.
