Setup email alerts for Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager (SEPM)

To use email alerts, you need to first configure SEPM to use your email server, then configure the alerts as needed.

Configure SEPM to connect to the email server:

  2. Click Server panel.
  3. Select the Management Server for which you wish to configure the email server and go to Edit Server Properties..
  4. In the Server Properties dialog box, click the Mail Server tab.
  5. Enter the Server Address, which would be an IP address, host name, or domain name of the email server.
  6. Enter the Port Number for the email server that sends the notifications.
  7. Enter the User name of the account on the email server. If you want to configure administrator email notifications, you should use the format [email protected] in this text box. If the text box is left blank, [email protected] name sends the notifications.
