PingFederate delivers messages to administrators and end users based on notification publisher settings. Each component that is capable of triggering or handling events might use a different notification publisher instance to deliver its messages. For example, you might select an SMTP Notification Publisher instance to deliver messages to your end users in an HTML Form Adapter instance, and another SMTP Notification Publisher instance to deliver licensing messages to other administrators.
