Configure mail providers and sessions

Configure your own mail providers and sessions to customize how mail is handled in the application server. A mail provider encapsulates a collection of protocol providers, like SMTP, IMAP and POP3, and others. Mail sessions authenticate users and control access to messaging systems.

The application server includes a default mail provider that is called the built-in provider. If you use the default mail provider, you only have to configure the mail session.

To use a customized mail provider, create the mail session and provider.


Procedure


What to do next

If the application has a client, you can configure mail providers and sessions using the Application Client Resource Configuration Tool.
