Data Protector 24.1 - Secure SMTP configuration

Despoina P

Hello,

We use DP24.1 on a Windows Server 2022 and we need to send reports using the Email(SMTP) method but our SMTP server requires authentication. We don't have Exchange server, just a normal SMTP server.

I tried the method described in https://docs.microfocus.com/doc/Data_Protector/24.1/TraditionalReports#Configure_Secure_SMTP  and also disabled the SSL certificate verification using the specified parameter in omnirc file.

But...

C:\Users\administrator.***>omnirpt -smtp_config -add -server_name ******  -user_name ******  -email_id ******  -server_port 25
Enter the Password:
Confirm the Password:
Secure SMTP configuration added successfully.


C:\Users\administrator.***>omnirpt -smtp_config -test
Secure SMTP connection failed.

How can I use simple SMTP server with authentication? Where/how can I find any log in DP side that shows what is the problem with SMTP test?
