Use the Email Account form to configure email accounts that manage outgoing (Sender) and incoming (Receiver) email. You specify email addresses to send from and to reply to, SMTP host information, User IDs, passwords, and more. When you configure email for your application, you reference the Email Account name in the email listener's Email Account field so the listener can get the information it needs to route incoming and outgoing messages.

  1. Optional: Click Select email provider to select a provider from the list. When you make a selection and click Submit, some fields, such as Host, Port, and Protocol, automatically populate. You can edit the information in these fields.
  2. In the Sender section, configure the email sender information to use when the Pega application sends email to customers or the email listener replies to a request.
  3. In the Receiver section, configure the receiver information to use when an email listener polls an inbox for messages to process (requests from customers).
