Information required to send e-mails from a AMETHYST server

[Belinda Frick]

Overview:

This will include all e-mail notifications and other e-mail functionality,
for example the e-mail of recordings from the AMETHYST Supervisor screen.

Where do I configure the mail settings?

• Log into AMETHYST Web Aministator on the server,
  
• Choose "Configure Mail/SMS Settings"
  
  The following information is required:
  
  • SMTP Mail Server IP address or host name:
    - This is the address of your email server. The server must support incoming SMTP.
    
  • SMTP User name and Password:
    - If your server requires authentication to send email, enter the required details here.
    
  • FROM address:
    - This is the e-mail address that will show in the FROM field when you receive the e-mail.
    - Some servers require this to be a valid e-mail address, ensure that you check this if
    you have problems.
    
  • Admin e-mail address:
    - This is where admin related e-mails will be sent.These are messages like No Tap
    or software down from the USBClient software.
    
  • Critical e-mail address:
    - All Critical e-mails will be sent here. These are messages like cable unplugged
    or Cardserver stopped messages from the Amethyst Cardserver.
    
  • Use E-mail scheduling:
    - When this option is enabled the [Start time] and [End Time] are used to determine when
    Admin e-mails are sent. The Admin e-mails will then only be sent between these 2 times.
    Please note! The Critical e-mails will still come through in realtime as the critical event occurs.
• Click on save and your e-mail settings are up and running.
