How do I add multiple SMTP Servers for use by ATRS schedules?

You can set up a number of SMTP servers and select from the list of existing servers when creating schedules. You can also set some as "backup" servers to be used when your "primary" SMTP server is unavailable.

System - SMTP Servers

  • Go to System tab and select SMTP Servers.SMTP Servers

You can set up a number of SMTP servers and select from the list of existing servers when creating schedules. This allows you to use a different SMTP server for each schedule should you wish. This is useful if you want the "From" name and email address to be different for different recipients.

Example: Reports and Alerts sent to customers come from the Customer Services Email Account; Alerts And Reports Relating to IT come from the IT Department's Account

Add Server

  • Click Add.
    Add Server Window

As stated above, you can set this account to be a backup email server.

  • Click Test to confirm that the settings are correct.

Sending Through Another SMTP Account or Customize Sender Details
