Updating the System Email Server Configuration

Scroll Prev Top Next More

In order for notification emails and system emails to be sent, you must set up an SMTP email profile that PerfectApps can use as the default for the system. Because the application root URL and email profile are defined during installation, use the Settings page only if you need to change them later.
