E-mail is delivered to the first server that SAS connects to. If SAS is not
able to connect to any of the specified servers, the attempt to deliver e-mail
fails and SAS returns an error.

that SAS provides, you must also specify the EMAILSYS=SMTP system option.
For information about EMAILSYS, see the documentation for your operating environment.
For the SMTP access method, use this option
in conjunction with the EMAILID=, EMAILAUTHPROTOCOL=, EMAILPORT, and EMAILPW
system options. EMAILID= provides the user name, EMAILPW= provides the password,
EMAILPORT specifies the port to which the SMTP server is attached, EMAILHOST
specifies SMTP servers that supports e-mail access for your site, and EMAILAUTHPROTOCOL=
provides the protocol.
