- The job template makes use of the SMTP protocol to send mail.
- The job template can be used to specify settings from different sources:
- Connection Settings
- This includes settings such as the SMTP host, port etc.
- It is recommended to use JS7 - Job Resources for this purpose as such settings tend to use the same values for any mail that should be sent.
- Mail Settings
- Such settings are specific for individual mail and include e.g. the subject and body of the mail.
- Connection Settings
- The job template can be used with a JS7 - Credential Store.
