Email Setup

The Email Setup dialog contains setting to configure Lucity's connection to the organizations email server.

SMTP Setup

Open Lucity Web and click to open the Admin Portal. Select Email > Email Setup.
Configure the server through which the Email Generator will send messages.
- In the Server Address field, enter the email server's name.
- In the Port Number field, enter the port through which the Email Generator will access the email server.
- Mark whether the Generator should use TLS to access the email server.
  Note: If using TLS, the administrator must install the self-signed certificate for the mail server on the server running the Lucity Services. That certificate must be installed to the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store.
  
  Note: These settings are reflected in the Lucity Web > Admin Portal > Settings > System Settings > Settings with Custom Interface tab.

When changes are complete, click Save.
