Adding an E-mail Server as an Account Resource

Scroll Prev Top Next More

E-mail Servers are resources that allow you to control the e-mail server from which PerfectApps sends its e-mail messages. Adding e-mail servers as resources at the account level allows you to override the overall system e-mail server and use a custom server to send app notifications and system e-mails (such as sending a password link, sending an API key and sign-up messages).

In response to Microsoft's announcement that in Office 365 Exchange, they would be disabling Basic Authentication, we have implemented a secure, modern authentication experience for our users. This feature is implemented only for setting up custom Email servers in the Settings Dashboard.

 

To modify an existing Email server, select the server in your resources list, start at step three above and choose the Microsoft 365 Exchange Online options from the Server Type drop-down.

 

There are limits when using Microsoft 365 Exchange. For details see: Limits
