How do I setup a third party Email Server for use with IntraVUE?
There are two methods of setting up the IntraVUE host computer to send email alarms. The first method is to use the SMTP server for the facility, you only need to enter the IP address or URL of a SMTP server that is reachable by the IntraVUE host in the Server Admin Tool. A second method is to install a third party SMTP server on the IntraVUE host computer to send the emails. Such a program is the Advanced Direct Remailer from MailUtilities.com, http://www.mailutilities.com/adr/?adrmnulnk. This program is shareware and costs $40 for a license. Be sure to set the program to run at Windows startup and to configure the program to delete messages after sending. In the Server Admin Tool, set the email server address to be “localhost”. You also need to make sure the program you use is set to automatically send any email that gets to the Outbox. If this is not set, the email will accumulate until someone manually sends it. For the Advanced Direct Remailer, all other default settings are OK.
