CHAPTER 12: Email (SMTP Protocol)
12.1 Overview
Electronic mail, often abbreviated as email or e-mail, is a method of exchanging digital
messages, designed primarily for human use. Email has been implemented using SMTP (Simple
Mail Transfer Protocol) protocol in OCS.
An electronic mail message consists of two components, the message header, and the message
body, which is the email's content. The message header contains control information, including,
an originator's email address and one or more recipient addresses. Usually additional information
is added, such as a subject header field.
This feature is designed to send email messages embedding real time data (logic registers) of the
controllers and can be configured using Cscape.
