Troubleshooting 7-31
Why do I need to set-up Webshare notifications?
Webshare has a feature to send email notifications whenever items are
shared with others, and the email addresses of these users is required. It is
recommended that visitor accounts always use the same email as the user
name, as opposed to having a different user name than the email address of
a visitor (which can add confusion for visitors). Email for Home Server users
must be set up separately within Webshare, as there is no other location that
uses the email address of Home Server users.
How do I find what my SMTP server is?
Contact your internet service provider to find your SMTP email settings. Many
service providers provide these settings as part of their email setup
instructions for users. However, occasionally some ISPs do not provide SMTP
email services. For these situations, some free email accounts also provide
SMTP access.
Do I need to do an SMTP email configuration?
If you are not using TZO domain services, then SMTP is required to use any
Webshare email feature. TZO email and domain services are a package,
and for most situations it is recommended that you use both together or
neither.
If you have chosen to use your own email provider to
send Photo Webshare announcements and these email
announcements have not been received by the people on
your lists.
• Ensure that SMTP server information is correct.
Contact your ISP to insure the information you entered is correct.
• Check that you enabled email notification for the group.
Check that the persons who have not received the email are in the correct
group.
