# Configure SMTP

Configuring SMTP server information is mandatory when sending out email notifications from Infraon. SMTP server configuration is a part of 'Getting Started' with Infraon. Mails sent to this address are converted as Incidents. This email address also acts as a reply to the mail address for all customer communication. Before configuring, ensure that you have the below details from your service provider:

* Host Name
* Host Username
* Password
* Port

There are two options within the SMTP server configuration. You can configure your existing email address onto Infraon or set up a new one using Infraon's email server.

## **Instructions to 'Configure SMTP'**

Go to Infraon Configuration -> Notifications -> Configure SMTP

On the page, either use the Microsoft OAuth login or manually enter API credentials.

### **Microsoft OAuth**

Click to log in using the Microsoft account.

Enter the Microsoft credentials and grant the appropriate permissions to configure the SMTP configuration easily.

### **Other**
