SMTP Server for Outgoing Email from DSA Cloud AD

Your email server manager may  need this information.

From them I need to get the information listed under the SMTP Accounts & Server Connection Parameters heading below.

At minimum I’ll need the domain name of the SMTP server.

See also Out Going Email Servers for Automatic Distribution  


White Listing / Security Info

The fixed IP of the Amazon AWS server that sends outgoing email with SMTP protocol for DSA Cloud AD:
34.215.118.213


SMTP Accounts & Server Connection Parameters

  • The host name

  • The port

  • The SSL authentication

  • The account information (username, password, etc.)

 

  • Server identification (host name): Type the SMTP server’s unique specification. Find that information on the service provider’s web page or on a POP/SMTP server list.

  • Port: Most SMTP functions optimally on port 25, although some are compatible with 587 as well. Check your server specifications for more information.

  • Connection security: SMTP doesn’t usually include email encryption, so secure your connections using STARTTLS or SSL/TLS extensions. You may want to use a different port for encrypted messages.

Recommendations

 We recommend delivering the email through your company's SMTP email server.
For setup and test we provide by default, access to a gmail server account. For security we do not recommending using the default gmail server for production.

  • The values of the parameters in rows 2 to 6 usually must be obtained from the IT person managing the email server.

  • Expect to test the new settings and make adjustments as required. Common points of problems include:

    • Network connection between the server hosting DSA AD or DSA Cloud AD and the email server.

    • Network or email server security.
