To use the email functionality
in SAS Studio, an SMTP server and the following information are required:
-
the host name of the SMTP server
for the outbound mail.
-
the port for the SMTP server.
-
the user name that accesses the
SMTP server. This user name is not necessarily the person who is sending
the mail.
-
the password for the user name
that accesses the SMTP server.
When you install SAS
Studio, the SAS Deployment Wizard prompts you for this information.
The SAS Deployment Wizard uses these values for the mail configuration
properties in the start-up scripts.
Here is an example:
#--- outgoing mail server properties
webdms.SMTP.hostName=mailhost.fyi.sas.com
webdms.SMTP.port=25
webdms.SMTP.user=site.administrator@your-company.com
webdms.SMTP.password=yourPassword
#-- domain for sender address
webdms.domain=your-company.com
When sending emails,
the sender address is derived from the user name that logged on to
SAS Studio and the value of the webdms.domain property
in the config.properties file. For example, if the user name is test,
the sender address is test@your-company.com.
