E-mail Delivery Options

You must configure the e-mail delivery options in the PPS Properties page before the PPE Mailer will send e-mail to users. To configure the e-mail delivery options:

Click the PPS item to display the PPS view.
Click PPS Properties in the right pane of the management console.
Click the E-mail tab.

Select the Disable e-mail reminders option to disable e-mail delivery.

Select the Send e-mail to an SMTP server option to have the PPE Mailer send e-mails directly to an SMTP server. Type the name or IP address of an SMTP server in the Server text box, and the SMTP port number in the Port text box.

Select the Save e-mail to a pickup folder option to have the PPE Mailer save e-mails to a folder for later delivery by a mail server. Click the Browse button to select a folder. The mail server must monitor this folder for new e-mail.

Saving e-mail to a pickup folder is the fastest and most reliable delivery method. Use this option if your mail server supports pickup folders.

The PPE Mailer sends e-mails at 2:00 AM every day. Check the Windows Application Event Log to monitor its progress. You can also run the PPE Mailer from the command line to send e-mail immediately, or to troubleshoot problems.
