You can specify up to three SMTP servers for event handing. However,

you must enter a separate command to specify each server.

To send email alerts, the switch first opens a connection, sends all the

email alerts waiting in the queue one by one, and finally closes the

connection.

To open a connection, the switch first selects the server that

successfully sent mail during the last connection, or the first server

configured by this command. If it fails to send mail, the switch selects

the next server in the list and tries to send mail again. If it still fails, the

system will repeat the process at a periodic interval. (A trap will be

triggered if the switch cannot successfully open a connection.)
