SMTP

Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP)

• The Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is the industry standard for email services over a TCP/IP network. The ability to send and receive email messages is provided by SMTP.

• Turbo360 provides an SMTP channel for the user to send and receive alerts and warnings to the configured recipients.

How to configure SMTP?

1. Provide a Friendly name to the SMTP channel to easily identify the Notification channel
2. Fill in the Email to field with the recipient's email address

3. Fill in the Email from field with the sender’s email address
4. Provide the CC field with email addresses, if necessary. The user can also fill in the BCC field in case required
5. Click Validate. A sample notification will be sent to the mail addresses specified in the Email to, CC and BCC fields to verify that the credentials are valid.
6. Once the validation is successful, you can use the Save option to complete the integration of your SMTP credentials with your Turbo360 account.

Dynamic Senders

Turbo360 supports configuring multiple 'To' addresses with a semicolon, providing a sender's list for SMTP setup across modules.

Here are images illustrating the setup of dynamic senders in Turbo360:
