Create SMTP Agent

The SMTP Agent is the means by which messages enter and leave your NIMS system across the Internet. The SMTP Agent must be running on at least one messaging server in the network in order for users to send messages across the Internet.

Fill in the SMTP Agent fields > click Apply to create the SMTP Agent object. Click the new SMTP Agent object to define additional object properties.

Domain
Specify the Internet domain used by your organization. By default, the SMTP Agent's domain corresponds with the messaging server's official domain as configured on the Messaging Server object's Identification page. The SMTP Agent uses this domain to identify which messages belong to the local messaging system. Messages not belonging to the local system are routed over the Internet to their respective domains.

Select
Select the NMAP Agent with which the SMTP Agent should communicate > click Apply to create the SMTP Agent object. Click the new SMTP Agent object to define additional object properties.

If you do not select an NMAP Agent, the SMTP Agent object is not created.
