Email Settings

The Email Settings page allows you to configure how Fortress sends email to Fortress users.

Users can configure Fortress to send them email anytime a change happens in a repository folder, or a work item is updated. You may send a test email using the "Test Settings" link.

SMTP Server and Port

The SMTP Server field contains the server you want Fortress to use when sending email to its users.

SSL

Use a secure connection to the SMTP server.

SMTP Auth User

The SMTP Auth User field contains the user name that is used to login to the SMTP server for authentication, if the SMTP server requires authentication.

Password

The Password field contains the password for the user name that is used to login to the SMTP server for authentication, if the SMTP server requires authentication.

From Address

The From Address field is used to specify the address that will appear in emails sent from the Fortress server. It does not need to be a valid email address, but it will be displayed as the user from whom the email was sent.

Server URL

The Server URL field is used to specify the Fortress Server that emails will use to link actions to the Fortress web interface. For example, when a user checks in a file, a link will be generated in the email message that is sent as part of that check in. The link allows the user to go the Fortress web interface that shows more information about the check in as well as a diff window showing the change that was made.

This should be something like: http://[Fortressservermachine]/VaultService
