Installing the Email Deprecated connector

warning

This connector is now in Deprecated status. It is no longer available for new users and is not actively maintained. We will provide a minimum six-month notice before its retirement. We recommend upgrading to the newer supported version of this connector.

To use the connector, you will first need to install it into your tenant.

Ensure you have the required details for the email account and provider that you will use for configuring the connector.

For example, a basic installation of the connector requires:

• The SMTP server name of your email service provider.

• The security protocol to use for securing email transmissions with the connector.

• The port that your email service provider mail server uses to communicate with the connector.

The configuration values for the connector will depend on your email provider. For example, to send emails from a Gmail account you will need to configure the connector with a different SMTP server name than if you are sending emails from a Microsoft Exchange/Office 365 account.
