Enabling email notifications

If you did not configure email notification settings in the installation program, you can do this after installation by setting the host name in the announcer.smtp.host property in the polarion.properties file located in [POLARION_HOME]\polarion\configuration. There you should also set the announcer.smtp.user and announcer.smtp.password properties to a valid email account on the SMTP host specified in announcer.smtp.host. You may want to create a dedicated email address on your SMTP host for use by the Polarion notifications system.

When this configuration is correctly set up, the system will send notification emails about various events according to the notification targets configuration. For information on configuring email notifications, see the Administrator’s Guide: Configuring Notifications in Polarion's Help.
