External
SMTP
(SMS -> Email)
Mail server port
This is the port that the corporate
SMTP
server „listens“ on. The NMG system sends emails to the
corporate
SMTP
server via this port. The preset value (25) is normally the standard setting. If the
corporate SMTP server has another value set, then change this value to that of the corporate
SMTP
server. If this value is incorrectly set, then the
NMG
system cannot send emails.
Mail server IP
This is the
IP
address of the corporate
SMTP
server. This value
MUST
be set correctly. If this is not
the case, then the NMG system cannot send emails. The
IP
address can be obtained from your
system administrator.
Max transfer retries
This value sets the maximal amount of times the system will try to re-send a email on failure. Once
this limit is reached, the system will cancel the operation.
Retry transfer delay
This is the time span the system uses between each attempt to send an email on failing on the initial
attempt. The standard value is 60 minutes (1 hour). The smallest possible time span is 1 minute, the
largest is 1440 minutes (24 hours).
Access
Use SMS access control lists
Activate this option if you wish to control which mobile users have access to the
SMS
to email
service. If this option is activated and you have not defined any
SMS access lists
, or assigned them
to the GSM channels, then this option has no influence on the access to the service (i.e. as if the
option were disabled). To create, edit or assign
SMS access lists
, this option must be enabled.
Use Email access control list
Activate this option if you wish to control which email addresses have access to the Email to
SMS
service. If this option is activated and you have not defined a email access list, then no-one has
access to the Email to
SMS
service. To create, edit or delete entries in the
email access list
this
option must also be enabled.
Use the following Email address as the recipient for administration emails
When administering the system via email, the emails must be sent to this email address. This is
NOT
an optional setting. This must be a valid email address recognized by the corporate
SMTP
server. If
this is not the case, then email administration will not be available.
Outgoing Emails
Optional prefix
Here you may enter an optional prefix that will be added to the email address of the sender
Domain postfix
Here you must enter the Domain of your mail server. This setting is not optional.
Note
To allow the use of the SMS<->Email functions, the
GSM profiles
must be explicitly set to allow the
sending of
SMS
messages. If this is not the case, then the messages cannot be sent.
Testing the SMS - Email Server
To test the function of the SMS - Email Server, you can connect to the server using a telnet session,
and simulate the sending of an email via SMS. Here is a short example of this procedure.
telnet
192.168.127.56 25
HELO SOFT8
MAIL FROM: [email protected]
RCPT TO: [email protected]
DATA
Hi Phil, how is the help coming on?
(dependant on the telnet client being used, the signaling of the end of data may be CTRL++, or
<enter>.<enter>)
