My Organization
Email Address	Identifies your organization within the file transfer process. The address by which files are sent and received.
Signing Certificate	The SSL certificate used by your organization for message signing and decryption. Must be a full public/private certificate. The public portion of the certificate is given to the file transfer partner so that they can encrypt files to your organization and verify messages signed by your organization.

Partner Organization
Email Address	Identifies the partner within the file transfer process. The address to which files are sent.
Certificate	The public portion of the SSL certificate used by the partner. This certificate is used to encrypt files to the partner and verify messages signed by the partner.
Encryption Algorithm	The symmetric encryption algorithm used for encrypting files. The algorithm must be agreed upon by both sides of the file transfer process. Supported algorithms are 3DES, DES, AES, AESCBC192, AESCBC256, and RC2. None disables encryption of files.
Compression Algorithm	The format used to automatically compress files. The format must be agreed upon by both sides of the file transfer process. The only supported format is ZLib. None disables the compression of files.
EDI Data Type	Tag that describes the format of the data. The tag is placed in the outbound message and applies to sending only. It does not affect the actual data bytes that are sent. Options: application/edi-x12 (default) Used in most cases. application/octet-stream: More generic, preferred by some recipients.
Transport Settings
POP3 Hostname/IP Address	The email server from which AS1 messages are retrieved.
Port	Port number of the POP3 server.
Secure Connection Type	SSL connection type to use when connecting to the POP3 server. Options: None: MOVEit Automation connects insecurely to the server Explicit: MOVEit Automation connects insecurely to the server and then requests that a secure connection be negotiated before continuing. Implicit: MOVEit Automation connects securely to the server.
Ignore SSL Certificate errors	If selected: Problems with the POP3 server's SSL certificate are ignored. Examples: lack of trust, a name that does not match the host name.
Username/Password	Credentials for MOVEit Automation to use when authenticating to the POP3 server.
Client Certificate	SSL client certificate to use when establishing a secure connection to the POP3 server.
Test	Click to test your connection. For more information, see Tests Performed on Hosts.
