  • Sender's address. Email address of the sender. Using a non-existent address is not recommended.
  • SMTP server. One or more addresses of email servers of your organization (for example, mail.company.com). You can enter an IP address (IPv4 or IPv6).

  • Recipient's address. Email addresses of recipients to whom the application will send notifications.
  • Send mode. Send mode of email notifications. Kaspersky Endpoint Security can send messages immediately when an event occurs; alternatively, it can follow a pre-configured schedule.
