Configuring an e-mail server
• The Port field is automatically filled in by the system with port 25, but this information can be edited, if necessary.
• The Protocol of the e-mail server is paramount to guarantee that messages are sent and received securely, ensuring an efficient and reliable communication flow. The available protocols are: SMTP, SMTP_TLS, and SMTP_SSL.
• If the Waiting time (in seconds) field is not filled in, the default time of 20 seconds will be used.

With the e-mail servers properly configured, it is possible to send notifications for system tasks.
