Email Alerts : SMTP Port Settings

Sophos Enterprise Console :  4.5.1.0

main menu click tools, there should be a “configure email alerts” options

The problem is the use of SMTP ports

It looks like there isnt a method to configure the SMTP server & PORT

We use a hosted exchange and the SMTP port needs to be changed to 2525

I do not see a way to do this in the Configure Email Alerts , nor in the Help Index , nor in this forum search , nor in a Google search

How can I make Port Settings? 

How do you guys get around this limited ability ?

If the only answer is :  Make an email account with the SMTP as 25 that does NOT require credentials, then this would be a bad thing. :smileyindifferent:

  • Hi,

    I assume adding <address>:<port> is no help even after the GUI complains of the format?  I know that the information is stored in the table: [dbo].[EmailAlertsSMTPParameters] regardless, it's just if the management service can use the string in this format?  I'm not able to test it at the moment.

    If it doesn't work I guess some port mapping software could be used for example:

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/pjs-passport/

    This one can install as a service and you define the source IP:port and destination:IP port.
