The Therefore™ Solution Designer 'Setting' window allows for the configuration of a variety of important options. The Settings window consists of multiple tabs.

Email Provider
The Therefore™ server will use this e-mail provider for sending e-mails (e.g. workflow notifications). Select a provider from the drop-down menu to authenticate.
By default the port number used is 25, but this can be set manually be specifying the port number after the server IP or name (e.g. 127.0.0.1:49).
The following providers are supported:
SMTP
SMTP (SASL XOAUTH2)

Test Settings

|
Note: E-mails from the Therefore™ system may have failed to send. Users may have seen error messages in the Therefore™ Solution Designer when trying to send a test e-mail. This happened only to customers who had configured Therefore™ to send e-mails from a custom e-mail address (by changing the “SMTP sender” in Therefore™ Solution Designer settings) rather than the default one (tenantname@thereforeonline.com). Due to changes in security policy, changing the “SMTP sender” field to a custom e-mail address is no longer allowed. To continue sending e-mails from the Therefore™ system, two options are available:
To use your own “From” address (SMTP sender) it is recommended to use your own SMTP server to send e-mails. This allows you to keep using your own custom “From” e-mail address while maintaining full control of your e-mail domain and settings. |
