SMS SMTP Server Name

Name of the mail server used to send emails from. These are later converted to SMS text messages.

  • Different email filters.
  • Different email disclaimers. The email server usually has a longer, comprehensive disclaimer. The server used for SMS can have a shorter disclaimer.
