a certain domain, for example, @YourCompany.com. If that is the case, this
checkbox must be unchecked and a valid “from” email address must be supplied in the

checkbox must be checked and a User Name and Password must be supplied
• Test email. To test the email settings, enter one or more email addresses in the Test
Email Address text box. Multiple email addresses can be separated by a comma. Then
