I have tried this before actually. From the documentation, it mention normal smtp server can not work. From my understanding, if we want to sent email, we have to provide our smtp server, login and password right? but how come it did not ask for it? thanks for help

Hi cch:

To use e-mail notification capabilities, you must run Actuate iServer service under a user account. If you specified the service to run under the Local system account when you installed Actuate iServer Express, you must change it using the Log On tab in Properties in the Services control panel. You will to specify the username/password here.
