Specifying Email Settings for the Alert File
Before the Windchill Risk and Reliability Alert Service can send alerts, email settings must be specified. The email account specified in the Administrator application is the default. However, you can specify a different account in the Alert File Properties window.
1. If the Alert file is not already open, then open it. You open this file in the same way as any other file.
2. Select View > Alert File Properties. The Alert File Properties window opens.
3. Complete the pages, referring to the following topics for more information:
4. On the Settings page, click Test Settings. An attempt is made to establish a connection with the mail server to verify the settings you have specified.
After a short delay, a window opens, indicating whether the test was successful.
5. Click OK. If the test has failed, make the necessary setting modifications and repeat steps 3 and 4 until the test is successful.
6. When finished, click OK.
