In order to use your Office 365 as the mail server that XpoLog uses to send emails, please use the following settings:
- In the General Settings console, open the Mail tab
- In SMTP Host, type your Office 365 mail exchanger (MX) record.
A mail exchanger record (MX record) specifies the mail server responsible for accepting email messages on behalf of a domain name. It is a resource record in the Domain Name System (DNS).
The MX can usually be found in the Domains area of your office 365 portal. It is usually in the form of: ORG_NAME-com.mail.protection.outlook.com (under Office 365 Admin Center, Domains section. Click the domain you wish to use and the MX should be there). - In SMTP Port, type 25
- System Email Address - typically this is the default/system ‘From’ email address that is to be used when sending emails from XpoLog. Enter an email address from this domain as the sender.
- In Administrator Email Address, type the email address of XpoLog’s administrator, where system notifications such as disk space, violation messages, and more, are to be sent.
- Check the Use SMTP Authentication check-box.
- Provide SMTP Username and SMTP Password (your Office 365 full user (email address) and password)
- Check the Use TLS/SSL check-box
- Click the Save button.
The Office 365 SMTP settings are saved.
