Configuring Notifications
To configure an SMTP mail server with Windchill, follow these steps:
|
|
Ensure that you have the correct email address in the Windchill user information.
|
1. Run the following command from a Windchill shell:
xconfmanager -t codebase/wt.properties -s wt.mail.mailhost=<mailserver hostname>:<port>
|
|
The port number is not required if the mail server listens on default port 25.
|
2. Run the following command from the Windchill shell:
xconfmanager -t codebase/wt.properties -s wt.mail.properties=<path to mail.properties>
In the command above, the full path to the mail.properties is what stores the username and password information for mail server authentication and is only needed if the mail server requires authentication.
The contents of the mail.properties file contains the following:
◦ wt.mail.smtp.username=<mail server username>
◦ wt.mail.smtp.password=<mail server password>
