E-mail recipients

Path: Administration > Notification > E-mail > recipients

Identify up to four e-mail recipients.

E-mail test (Administration > Notification > E-mail > test). Send a test message to a configured

recipient.

Setting Description

To Address The user and domain names of the recipient. To use e-mail for paging, use the e-mail address

for the recipient’s pager gateway account (for example, [email protected]). The

pager gateway will generate the page.

To bypass the DNS lookup of the mail server’s IP address, use the IP address in brackets

instead of the e-mail domain name, e.g., use jsmith@[xxx.xxx.x.xxx] instead of

jsmith@company.com. This is useful when DNS lookups are not working correctly.

Note: The recipient’s pager must be able to use text-based messaging.

SMTP Server Select one of the following methods for routing e-mail:

• Local: Through the InRow RD’s SMTP server. This setting (recommended) ensures that the

e-mail is sent before the InRow RD’s 20-second time-out, and, if necessary, is retried several

times. Also do one of the following:

• Enable forwarding at the InRow RD’s SMTP server so that it can route e-mail to external

SMTP servers. Typically, SMTP servers are not configured to forward e-mail. Check with

the administrator of your SMTP server before changing its configuration to allow

forwarding.

• Set up a special e-mail account for the InRow RD to forward e-mail to an external mail

account.

• Recipient: Directly to the recipient’s SMTP server. With this setting, the InRow RD tries to

send the e-mail only once. On a busy remote SMTP server, the time-out may prevent some

e-mail from being sent.

When the recipient uses the InRow RD’s SMTP server, this setting has no effect.
