In the FME Server Web User Interface, select Notifications > Publications, and click New.Provide the following:
- A name for the publication.
- Protocol: Email(SMTP).
- Specify the Topics you want to publish to using the drop-down selector. To create a topic and use it right away, click +.
- Email User Name:
- To e-mail FME Server directly, enter the user account name to receive the e-mail on the FME Server host system. For example, if the FME Server host name is services.internal, and the e-mail address is user@services.internal, enter user.
- To e-mail a separate server that relays the e-mail to FME Server, enter the user name of the e-mail address on the e-mail server. For example, if the e-mail address is user@company.com, enter user.
Note: A rule must be configured on the e-mail server that relays e-mails for the specified Email User Name on to FME Server. The rule must specify the FME Server machine name and SMTP port. To determine the port, see Configuring for SMTP.
Note: Email addresses cannot be duplicated across Email publications. There must be a unique email address for each email publication. Email addresses are case-insensitive.
