Send emails using CurrentWare’s email server
For added simplicity and convenience CurrentWare version 8.0.1+ comes pre-equipped with a service that handles email delivery for you!
No need to dig up mail server addresses, port numbers, and authentication details to receive alerts and reports—Simply set up your report schedules and alert criteria and they’ll be delivered to the inboxes you specify. You can find a guide on how to do that here.
On the Web Console, under the Settings option from the left-hand side, select Email Settings to confirm this setting is enabled.
⚠️IMPORTANT NOTES
If you don’t see the email come into your inbox, make sure to check your Junk/Spam folders and accept the sender notifications@currentware.com
Send emails using your own outgoing email server
On the Web Console, under the Settings option from the left-hand side, select Email Settings to enter the email configurations required to successfully send email reports and alerts from the console.
How to Configure Your Email Settings:
- Select the email account type, SMTP or Microsoft Exchange Server.
