You can configure email settings to be used for different features, such as sending reports or receiving automatic email notifications of events. Veritas Resiliency Platform manages email notifications via Resiliency Managers. When Resiliency Managers are located in different geographical locations, the required email settings are likely different for each location. In that case, you add a separate email configuration for each location. You can send a test email to verify the settings. You can also modify or delete existing email configurations.
