Configure secure outgoing email

1. Right-click the EmailService node under Services in the station’s Nav tree, then click ViewsProperty Sheet and expand the OutgoingAccount properties.

   The Edit email account dialog appears.

   
   
   

   The example shows the configuration when using SMTP.

   Incoming and outgoing messages use different ports for SSL encryption as follows:

   Table 1. SMTP email ports

   	Incoming	Outgoing
   non-SSL	110	25
   SSL	587	465

   
   

2. Set Use Ssl to true, change the Port to the appropriate SMTP SSL port (default 465), and click Save.

   Do not change the Use SSL setting from true to false or vice versa without changing the Port.

3. If the email server’s certificate is signed by a CA whose root certificate is not located in the station’s Trust Store, you may:

   • Import the CA (root) certificate into the station’s Trust Store. For more information see Set up the platform and station Trust Stores.

   • Or, when challenged, accept the exception creating a record in the Allowed Hosts list. For more information see Managing allowed hosts and About the Allowed Hosts tab. You can import a CA (root) certificate later and delete this temporary exception.
