Advanced

  • Disable: Select True to disable the j5 email functionality. When disabled, the error information normally sent via email is only recorded in the j5 log files.

  • Email Override - This needs to be set for the Staging and Development installation types. All the emails sent by j5 will go to this address; j5 emails are sent to this email address rather than the specified recipients. This ensures that the emails aren’t sent to the recipients (for example, the production users) from the testing environments.

  • Enables use of IDNA encoding - Select True to encode email addresses that use unicode characters with IDNA.

  • Max recipients in a singular email - If the number of recipients is greater than this setting, j5 will batch send the emails based on this limit. The default is 1000.

  • Use built-in Test Server - This can only be used for the Staging and Development installation types. Select True to use the built-in test server. The other settings aren't required if this True.

Details

  • Administrator Email - The email address j5 sends emails to when it encounters an error. Multiple email addresses can be provided, separated by a semicolon (;).

  • Automatically Email Errors - Select True to allow j5 to email the administrator when it encounters an error.

  • Character Set - The character set used to encode emails from j5. The default is UTF8.
