Configuring an SSL connection to the SMTP server
Steps
-
To create an external SMTP server using SSL, run the
dsconfig
command.Example:
$ bin/dsconfig create-external-server \ --server-name ssl.smtp.example.com \ --type smtp --set server-host-name:stmp.gmail.com \ --set server-port:465 \ --set smtp-security:ssl \ --set "user-name:my.name@example.com" \ --set password:xxxxxx --set "smtp-timeout:10s"
-
To configure an SMTP server, run the
dsconfig
command.Example:
$ bin/dsconfig set-global-configuration-prop \ --set smtp-server:ssl.smtp.example.com
This command adds the server to the global list of mail servers that the PingDirectory server can use.
