Configuring the Mail Server
A mail server must be configured for email notification to work.
Note: If you configure the mail server specification on a OneSight
server with a name that that includes an underscore (for example,
onesight_server), you should confirm that that e-mail alerts
continue to function after making this change. If your server
validates host names according to RFC 810 (most servers do not), a
OneSight server name containing an underscore may be rejected.
To configure the mail server, complete the following steps:
1. On the Configure Action Plans page, click Global Actions.
2. One the Global Action Manager page, click Global Options.
3. In the Global Action Options dialog box, click the E-Mail tab.
4. Under Servers, enter the domain names of the primary and
backup SMTP mail servers to use when sending e-mail.
Note: When specifying the primary or backup mail servers, use
the SMTP port designated by your company. If you do not
specify a port number, the default SMTP port number (port 25)
is used. If you are unsure of your company’s mail server
domain names or SMTP port number, contact your System
Administrator.

To use an SMTP port other than the standard port used for mail,
complete the following steps:
