Advanced email alert settings only need to be adjusted if you are using the Email Notification Alerts feature.
Use Advanced Email Settings to:
Configure a Direct
SMTP or Relay
SMTP server.
Configure a proxy
server if the computer on which Spector Pro is installed exists
behind a firewall or is part of a corporate network, and you need to tell
the SpectorSoft server how to route the email alerts. Spector Pro can
contact the SpectorSoft mail server directory through it. The proxy server
must be a web proxy server (HTML proxy).
Configure the TLS
setting, a protocol that ensures privacy between communicating
applications and the Internet. If encryption is required or if you want
to encrypt traffic, change the setting. You may need to obtain some of
this information from your network administrator.
Fine tune email
settings so that they do not appear as if they are coming from
Spector Pro.
Under normal circumstances, you will not need to change advanced settings. Spector Pro advises that only advanced users change these settings, as this could alter the ability of Spector Pro to reliably capture data.
To access Advanced Email Settings:
From the Email Notification pane:
Click Advanced. A warning appears reminding you that changing the advanced settings could have an adverse effect on Spector's ability to record. Click Yes to proceed.
The Email Information portion of the Email Settings window changes depending on which server type you selected. New fields are added and unnecessary fields are grayed out.
To configure a Direct SMTP:
From the Email Notification pane:
Domain - Type the domain name.
To configure a Relay SMTP:
From the Email Notification pane:
Mail Server - Type the IP address of the mail server on your network.
SMTP Port - If your company uses a different port, enter it here. The default is 25.
Authentication - Select the authentication type, including POP or ESMTP. The default is None.
Account Name and Password - Enter the account name and password for POP and SMTP accounts, if authentication is required.
To configure TLS:
On the Email Settings window:
Use the dropdown list to select:
Use if Available if you want to encrypt traffic.
Required if TLS encryption is required.
Do Not Use if you do not want to encrypt traffic. This is the default.
Validate Server's Certificate - Validate whether or not the server's certificate is trustworthy and authentic. A certificate verifies the identify of a web site thereby providing a secure communications channel.
To configure a proxy server:
This is only available if your server type is SpectorSoft. From the Email Settings window:
Computer Uses Proxy Server - Click to enable this option if your company has a proxy server setup to relay information, so that Spector Pro can contact the SpectorSoft mail server directory through it. If you enable proxy server support you will most likely keep the Mail Server entries blank.
Address - Type the IP address or server name (DNS only) of the proxy server.
HTTP Port - If your company uses a different port, enter it here. The default is 8000.
Use these settings if you want Spector Pro to make keyword alerts appear as if they are coming from a source other than Spector Pro.
To configure optional email settings:
On the Email Settings window:
Friendly From - Type a name which identifies the sender as something other than an email address.
|
|
If anyone replies to an email alert, they are replying to the email address typed in this field.
|
From Address - Type the email address that you want Spector Pro to use. The default is noreplyspectorsoft.com.
Subject - This is what appears in the Subject line when you receive an alert. If Spector Pro is installed on multiple computers, you should supply each one with a different Subject so you can immediately tell from which computer the alert is coming. The default is Spector Alert on Computername, where Computername is the actual name of the computer where the keyword was found (the computer on which Spector Pro is installed).
