In XTM Cloud, you can change the settings for email notifications to suit your needs. Some default settings are applied from the moment the account has been created but, provided you have the Administrator role, you can easily change them in Configuration → Settings → Email → Email.

Open

• Host → The email server address. The XTM Cloud server is set by default. It does not require authentication because emails will be sent from XTM International's internal server. If you experience problems with SPAM messages, we recommend you set your own mail server.

• Port → The number to be used along with the server host. This field is empty by default and it uses the default server port (22). It can be changed if an external mail server must be used.

• Authentication → If this option is selected, messages are sent from the email address (the user, password are checked). If not, then messages are sent from the specified mail server without authentication.

• User → The name of the email account that is used to send messages. By default, the field is empty and it uses the default user: “noreply@xtm-intl.com”.

• Password and Re-enter new password → Use these fields to change the password for the specified email account.

• TLS → If this option is selected, the TLS protocol is used with SMTP host communication.
