  • Separate email addresses with a semicolon.
  • All email actions require a designated SMTP server.
  1. Click Settings > All Settings in the menu bar.
  2. Click Configure Default Send Email Action.
  3. Under the Default Recipients heading, provide the email addresses of all default recipients for any email alert action, like the following:
    email@company.com; email2@company.com; distrolist@company.com
  4. Provide the default sender and reply address.
  5. Enter the default SMTP server information.

    Selecting SSL encryption automatically changes the SMTP port number to 465.
