Default Email Account | The account to be used as the default system account for sending and receiving emails. |
Automatic Resend Attempts | The number of times that the scheduled processing is allowed to fail for an email before the email's status changes from Pending Processing to Failed. However, the system ignores this setting if a critical error occurs on the mail server or if you run the processing manually. By default, the number of automatic resend attempts is set to 0. |
Suspend Email Processing | A check box that you select to suspend the processing of outgoing and incoming emails on all system accounts. The system will process only emails related to the users' security in this case. You clear the check box to resume email processing. |
Send User Emails Immediately |
A check box that you select to make the system to send the emails at once for the default email account. If the check box is selected, when a user clicks Send on the Email Activity (CR306015) form for an email, the system sends the email at once and assigns it the Processed status. If the check box is cleared, the system adds the email to the sending queue and assigns the email the Pending Processing status. Regardless of the state of the Send User Emails Immediately check box, the system always immediately sends the service emails for which corresponding notification templates were specified on the Email Preferences (SM204001) form. The check box is available for selection if the Suspend Email Processing check box is cleared on the same form. If a user selects the Suspend Email Processing check box, the system clears the Send User Emails Immediately check box (if it was selected) and makes it unavailable for selection. |
