📧SMTP Service

Inforiver leverages SMTP services (optional) to deliver email notifications for functionalities like comment alerts and scheduled export tasks. If you'd like to enable these email notifications, you'll need to provide the following details during deployment:

If you plan to leverage your organization's Office 365 mail server for email notifications, you can provide dummy values during the initial deployment. This will bypass the validation check and allow you to configure the actual Office 365 settings later within the Inforiver management portal.

• SMTP Host/Server Address: This is the hostname or IP address of your email server (e.g., mail.contoso.com).

• SMTP Port: The port number used by your email server for communication. Common ports for SMTP include 25, 465 (recommended for encrypted communication), or 587.

• SMTP Username: This depends on your email server configuration. It could be:

  • Email Address: The email address of the service account used by Inforiver for authentication (e.g., [e-mail]).

  • Username: For some services, a simpler username might be used (e.g., inforiver_service_account).

• SMTP Password: The password associated with the SMTP username you provided.

• SMTP From Email: If your email server allows specifying a different "From" address for emails, you can enter it here. Otherwise, leave this blank, and Inforiver will use the username provided earlier.

Make sure to collect the above details from your mail server administrator before deployment. But you would be able to change these settings after deployment too.
