Communications Tab

Specify the email server settings and set default email addresses.

Field Description
Email Server This is the host name or IP address of an SMTP-compliant email server. For example, smtp-mail.outlook.com if you use Office 365.
Port This is the SMTP port that the SMTP server that you entered above uses. In most cases it will be port 25 but in some cases, port 587 may be required.
Use TLS

If you use an email provider that uses TLS (Transport Layer Security) encryption, such as Microsoft Office 365, select this check box.

Username / Password Enter a username and password if they are required by your email provider for sending emails via SMTP. This is a domain username, not a Touchstone username. For example, enter your Office 365 username and password if you use Office 365.
Default Sender Email This is the default email address that is used when emails are sent by Touchstone.
Send Test Email Click to send a test email from the server to the logged in user. If the logged in user does not have an email address listed in EPM Security Administrator, Touchstone displays an error message.
