These setting provide PolicyTech™ with the information necessary to send outgoing mail through your organization's email system.
System Email Address. What you enter here will appear as the sender on all PolicyTech notifications when the Send Task Alerts From setting is System Email Address (see "Send Task Alerts From" below). To allow replies to these notifications, type the email address of someone within your organization, such as a document control administrator. To prevent replies, use a nonworking email address, such as noreply@mycompany.com. Whatever you type must be in a valid email format.
URL to Program. The URL to the PolicyTech program is automatically filled in upon installation. Do not change the URL unless PolicyTech has been moved to a different server since installation.
Note: If you move a Policy Tech database to a training or development test site, be sure to modify URL to the program so that links connect with the correct site and do not attempt to connect with the live, originating database. Include the server name (as opposed to the IP address) in the URL. For example, if the PolicyTech server name were ptappsrvr, then the URL to the program would be http://ptappsrvr/ (be sure to include the trailing forward slash). If PolicyTech is configured on a port other than 80, then include the correct port number in the URL (for example, http://ptappsrvr:8080/).
SMTP Server / Port. Contact your IT professional for this information.
Sent Task Alerts From. You can choose to have the sender on all PolicyTech email notifications be the system email address (see "System Email Address" above), or the owner of the document that the notification is about.
Contact your IT person to find out if the email server requires authentication. If it does, your IT person can provide the information necessary for PolicyTech to log in to the server.
To make sure the email settings are correct, type your email address in the Email Address box, and then click Test. Check your email inbox after a few minutes to see if the message was successfully sent.
