SMTP Mail from Scheduled Syncs

CONNX Datasync has the ability to have email notification sent to a group or to individual(s), after a scheduled sync has been performed. This enables administrators to have instant access to information relating to sync's. In addition, it can also send email if problems result from a synchronization. To use this ability, the user should navigate to the SMTP Mail sub-tab. It appears as:

 

The user should fill in the following:

 

• SMTP Email Server
  On Windows machines, this can be invoked by starting the SMTP Mail Service.
  
• From
  This reflects the sender's email address. For this example, the sender and receiver are the same.
  
• To
  This indicates the recipient of the email.
  
• Frequency
  Emails can be sent on start, success, and error conditions.
  

An Email Test button is provided to verify that the SMTP settings are correct. After pressing this button, an immediate response will be provided indicating that the settings are correct or incorrect.

 

After a scheduled sync has been performed, Email messages should be sent to the designated location, and the content of the email should indicate detailed status relating to the synchronization that was performed.

 

The subject will always start with DataSync. You could set up certain mail rules to have these messages placed to an appropriate folder.
