If connection fails, a warning message appears:
In this case, check logs to find the error cause. To perform this, navigate to System Logs → Main Log and make a log selection based on the criteria below:
- Source = Email Logger
AND - Level = Error
Use Condition Builder to build an appropriate filter. An example of the error record is given below:

To start using the created email account, set your email accounts as default ones. The system will insert them automatically into every letter, incoming or outgoing.
To do this, complete the following steps:
- Navigate to the System Mailboxes → Email Accounts.
- Open the record you need.
Find the email account ID in the address bar (it is a long number sequence), and copy it to the clipboard.
Section - Navigate to the System Properties → System Properties.
- Find the default.email.account.send property using the search box.
- Paste the email account ID from the clipboard in the Value field.
