Use this page to modify the cell-wide task notification e-mail parameters. To view this administrative console page, click Runtime Operations > Task Management > Notifications. If security is enabled, some fields are not available without security authorization.

Configuration tab fields:

SMTP host name Specifies the simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP) server to connect to when sending mail. Validation on the server host name is not performed.
Port number Specifies the SMTP port number to connect to when sending mail. The valid port numbers are between 1 and 64767. Validation that the port is the correct SMTP port is not performed.
SMTP user ID Specifies the user ID when the mail transport host requires authentication. Leave this field blank unless you use a mail server that requires a user ID and password.
SMTP password Specifies the password when the mail transport host requires authentication. Leave this field blank unless you use a mail server that requires a user ID and password.
Enable notifications Toggles e-mail notifications on and off. When notifications are enabled, an e-mail is sent to each of the e-mail addresses that is specified when a task is generated.
E-mail address When notification is enabled, an e-mail is sent to each of the e-mail addresses that is specified when a task is generated. If no e-mail addresses are specified, e-mail notifications are not sent out. Each e-mail address is validated for syntax.

When you complete your changes, click Test E-mail to verify that the task information is sent. If the e-mail server uses spam-blocking software, this test fails because the e-mail does not display in the test inbox. When the test is successful, click Apply or OK. Then, click Save
