  3. At the prompt, type yes and press ENTER to save the SMTP host.
  4. Type set sender-address <example@example.com> and press ENTER. The address you enter should be a valid SMTP account that Address Manager can use to send mail.
  5. At the prompt, type yes and press ENTER to save the sender address.

Configuring SMTP authentication

Users can optionally configure an SMTP username and password for authentication.

To configure the SMTP username and password:

  1. From Main Session mode, type configure mail and press ENTER.
  2. Type set smtp-credentials and press ENTER to open the SMTP username and password configuration prompt.
  3. Type the SMTP username and press ENTER.
  4. Type the SMTP password and press ENTER.
    Note: The password can be any combination of letters, numbers, and symbols (ASCII-standard characters only).
  5. Type the SMTP password again and press ENTER to confirm.
  6. Type yes and press ENTER to save the username and password configuration.
Tip: To remove the current SMTP credentials, use the remove smtp-credentials command while in mail service configuration mode.
