Verify that your SMTP, POP3 and IMAP email servers are up, available, and functioning properly. Configure ServerView to continually login to your mail servers throughout the day to ensure that everyone in your organization is able to send and receive mail properly. ServerView can even check your domain against email blacklist servers to prevent inadvertent delivery issues.
SMTP Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) is the Internet protocol for electronic mail delivery. Most mail servers today use this protocol to deliver and receive e-mail.
Whenever you send an e-mail, your e-mail client interacts with the SMTP server to handle the sending. The SMTP server on your host may have conversations with other SMTP servers to actually deliver the e-mail.
ServerView agents monitor your SMTP server by connecting to specified mail server and doing an SMTP handshake. If a remote server does not respond to a handshake or it is unavailable, you will receive an instant alert.
