SMTP

The SMTP Profile Manager allows to to manage/create SMTP profiles on your local machine. A SMTP profile is used when sending an email. The left side of the profile manager allows you to view and edit the information that is used by a profile. If you have more than one profile available, you can browse through them by clicking the blue navigation buttons. The right side of this window gives you access to some managing options for the profile. Please note that every profile needs a valid profile name so please enter a name of your choice in the field "Profile Name" before saving it.

New Profile

Allows you to create a new SMTP profile that is being used to send emails. It is necessary to specify the SMTP server address as well as the Port number. Any mail server that supports SMTP protocol can be used here. If the SMTP server requires an encrypted connection, you have to activate the "SSL" box. If the SMTP server requires user authentication, you have to activate the "Authentication required" box and to specify the user name as well as the password. Please also specify the timeout value which is the amount of seconds the application will wait for data to be received from the server before returning an error, or zero to wait indefinitely. The default timeout value is 30 which is also recommended.

Save Profile

Allows you to save the profile with the entered information. You have to click this button if you wish to save a newly created profile or if you wish to save changes that might have been made on an existing profile. No changes/information will be saved if you do not click this button.

Delete Profile

Allows you to delete the currently displayed SMTP profile .

Use Profile

Allows you to select the currently displayed profile for use. This option is only available if you do not directly call the profile manager. For example, if you open the profile manager by clicking the profile button at "Send", this option is available. If you open the profile manager directly by selecting it from the dashboard from from the file menu, this option is unavailable.

Import Profile

Allows you to import a profile file. You can only import those profiles that have been exported by the application through the option "Export Profile".

Export Profile

Allows you to export the currently displayed profile to an external file that can later be imported through the option "Import Profile".
