E-mail protocol

There are basically two distinct protocols for sending e-mails.

  • SMTP: (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) When you choose SMTP you specify the name of a SMTP server. This does not necessarily have to be accessed through a LAN but can be accessed through a modem connection. Contact your Network administrator

  • MAPI: (Messaging API). When you choose MAPI you specify the name of your local mail client. Mails are passed on to the local client who will pass on the mail. (NT: Try accessing Settings / Control Panel / Mail / Profiles)
    Note that MAPI definitions do not use the From and Name fields.
