When you enable email for a server configuration, users can email the properties of an item to another user from within the
application. The email recipients do not need to be running the application to receive the email.
The application sends automatic email to users when their exclusive locks on items are broken. Users can only break locks
if they have the correct access rights and privileges to do so. You can also configure the application to perform automatic
email notification when certain other events occur. Depending on the server configuration and system policy options you select:
- Members of the
System Managers group can receive email whenever an error is added to the server log.
- Members of the
Security Administrators group can receive email whenever a logon failure occurs.
- All users can receive automatic notifications about items for which they are responsible or for which they are recipients.
Note: If a recipient of an item or notification has an incorrectly formatted email address, an entry is written to the server log
indicating that there was a problem sending email to that address. If an email address is formatted correctly but is invalid
(as in “junk@place.com”), the email is sent to all valid recipients, and the sender gets an “Undeliverable message” from the
email system for the invalid address.
