Web services can generate email notifications and send them to a remote email system. To enable email notifications, configure web services by specifying email configuration properties.


To configure email configuration properties


  1. Go to the <wap_installation_directory>\apache-tomcat\shared\conf directory.
  2. Open the webappplatform.properties file.
  3. Read the comments with property descriptions below and specify the following properties:

    # Specyfy the e-mail server host name.
    mail.host=<gate.company.com>
    # Specify the e-mail server port.
    mail.port=25
    # Specify the sender's user name and password.
    mail.username=<user_name>
    mail.password=<password>
    # Specify the e-mail protocol and encoding.
    mail.protocol=smtp
    mail.encoding=UTF-8
    # Specify the sender's e-mail address.
    mail.from.default=<info@company.com>
    mail.from.enabled=false
    mail.smtp.auth=false
    mail.smtp.timeout=30000

    Specifying property values

    • Make sure you replace the placeholders in the angle brackets (<>) with actual values (e.g., Magic Collaboration Studio and Authentication server addresses)
    • Some properties are specified for you. You can leave their values unchanged.
  4. Save and close the file.
  5. Restart Web Application Platform.
