Add Active Discovery Task - Notification

When an Active Discovery Task is successful, an email is generated and sent to the address entered here. WhatsUp Gold uses the Outgoing mail (SMTP) server on this dialog to send the message from the WhatsUp Gold computer to the email address.

Enable Notification Email. Select this option to activate an email notification to be sent after an Active Discovery task is complete; clear the option to disable the email notification.
Email address (Mail To). Enter the email addresses you want to send the notification to. Email addresses must be fully qualified. You can enter two addresses, separated by commas (but no spaces). The address should not contain brackets, braces, quotes, or parentheses.

The authentication type is not configurable. It is negotiated with the SMTP server automatically.
