SMTP connection settings

[connection]

If the SMTP transmission mode is selected, the respective connection settings to the SMTP server in use must be configured in the configuration file. Access to the SMTP server should be made by an appropriate user. For this, the IBI-helpMe Client application provides the option of storing the encrypted login password in the configuration file (see Encrypt passwords). If useSecureAuthentication is set to the value true, the authentication method NTLM will be used. The password will never be sent over the network when this method is used.

Example

<configuration version="1.2.0">
  <connections>

    ...

	<!-- SMPT connection settings -->
	<connection name="SMTP">
    	<url>smtp.company.net</url>
	    <domain>userDomain</domain>
	    <userName>userName</userName>
	    <!-- Encrypted password: To encrypt a password, the application must be started using the /Admin parameter.  -->
	    <password>8+HNxNAcUcl+E+oh9//W3w==</password>
	    <!-- Ensures that only safe authentication methods are used. -->
    	<useSecureAuthentication>True</useSecureAuthentication>
	</connection>
