Expert Logger
This section is used to specify the format of the sender address to be used with the
mail server. The sender address of a mail consists of two parts:
1) The actual sender address
2) The sender name displayed
Info
Many mail servers do not allow for a sender mail address to be entered
that is different from the login data.
The sender address is created from the two fields Domain and Username.
Domain: Enter a user-defined domain or select the domain set under.
Username: Enter a user-defined username or select one of the predefined options.
Display name: Enter a user-defined display name or select one of the predefined
options.
Info
The "Channel name" setting is resolved by the respective channel used
at run time. Example: A mail server was assigned the value "Channel
name" for the fields "Username" and "Display name". Its domain is
"example.com". An event channel called "Time stopper" uses the pre-
viously configured mail server for sending mails. If an event occurs,
an email will be sent with the sender "Time stopper <timestop-
per@example.com>".
