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.
