14. Set SMTP Parameters (Log Reports by Email). The SMTP

Parameters screen is applicable when the VOIP administrator has

chosen to receive log reports by email (this is done by selecting the

“SMTP” checkbox in the Others screen and selecting “Enable SMTP”

in the SMTP Parameters screen.). The SMTP Parameters screen can

be reached by pulldown menu, keyboard shortcut, or sidebar.

MultiVOIP as Email Sender. When SMTP is used, the MultiVOIP will

actually be given its own email account (with Login Name and

Password) on some mail server connected to the IP network. Using this

account, the MultiVOIP will then send out email messages containing

log report information. The “Recipient” of the log report email is

ordinarily the VoIP administrator. Because the MultiVOIP cannot

receive email, a “Reply-To” address must also be set up. Ordinarily,

the “Reply-To” address is that of a technician who has access to the

mail server or MultiVOIP or both, and the VoIP administrator might

also be designated as the “Reply-To” party. The main function of the

Reply-To address is to receive error or failure messages regarding the

emailed reports.
