The SMTP channel is used to send out E-mail messages using Auron Omni.
Find more information about channels in general here.
The number of simultaneous SMTP channels you can configure depends on the license tier of your Auron Omni subscription.
E-mail templates
You can define E-mail templates that help you speed up sending large numbers of E-mails. Find more information on how to create and use E-mail templates here.
Settings
| Item | Description |
| Server | The host name or IP address of the SMTP server. For instance “smtp.yourdomain.dom” or “192.168.1.1”. |
| Port | The TCP port to connect to the SMTP server. This is normally 587 but older servers may also use 465 or 25. |
| Security | This can be either None, STARTTLS or TLS/SSL. STARTTLS is the most common setting. This means that the connection is secured only if the server side supports it. |
| Authentication | This can be either None, Password or OAuth. OAuth is the correct setting for Modern Authentication. Click on Authorize with OAuth to set up your OAuth settings. |
| Account Name | The Account Name property is used to log on to the SMTP server. |
| Password | The Password property is used to log on to the SMTP server. |
| Full Name | Friendly name of the sender. It is shown as the sender’s name by most email clients. |
| E-mail Address | E-mail address. This address appears as the sender’s address by the recipient’s email client. |
| Reply Address | Reply address. If this address is not set, the E-mail Address is used as the reply address. |
| Retry (ms) | The time in milliseconds that the SMTP channel waits before attempting to retry the connection to the SMTP server if the initial connection fails. |
| Command timeout (ms) | The maximum time a command may take to complete before the connection is closed. |
| Connect interval (ms) | The time in milliseconds between reconnect attempts if the connection is unexpectedly closed. |
| Send interval (ms) | The time in milliseconds between sending each E-mail. Use this property to throttle an SMTP connection and limit the number of E-mail messages per second. |
| Template cache | How many templates this channel keeps in memory. |
| Fail if template not found | Specify if a message should fail if it uses a template that does not exist. If this option is unchecked, the message continues with the template values text as a plain text body. |
