Options

  • Name
    Provide a unique name for the connection manager.

  • Description

  • Use Windows Authentication
    Select to send mail using an SMTP server that uses Windows Authentication to authenticate access to the server.

    Important

    The SMTP connection manager supports only anonymous authentication and Windows Authentication. It does not support basic authentication.

    Note

    When using Microsoft Exchange as the SMTP server, you may need to set Use Windows Authentication to True. Exchange servers may be configured to disallow unauthenticated SMTP connections.
