Dell PowerProtect Data Manager for Cyber Recovery User Guide

Configure mail settings

After you have configured an email server in the Cyber Recovery UI, enable mail server support to route and deliver Cyber Recovery email notifications to Cyber Recovery users, and set restricted domains for email addresses for users and the reporting feature.

Prerequisites

  • You are logged in as the security officer.
  • The email server must support TLS 1.2 or TLS 1.3, otherwise email messages are not sent.

About this task

If you do not enable this option, the Cyber Recovery software assumes that the local Postfix email service is the default email service. If you use Postfix, ensure that you configure TLS to prevent vulnerabilities.

NOTE: We do not recommend that you configure Postfix for your Cyber Recovery deployment; use the Cyber Recovery UI to enable mail server support.
