Office365 SMTP Password Authentication - ActiveXperts Network Monitor
IMPORTANT NOTE: From October 2022, you should use Microsoft OAuth2 Authentication instead of Password Authentication. Microsoft OAuth2 Authentication is supported by ActiveXperts. To read more about Office365 OAuth2 Authentication, click here.
In ActiveXperts, you can send out e-mail alerts through virtually any SMTP server.
To send out e-mail alerts through Microsoft's Office365 SMTP server, make sure you have the SMTP settings accordingly.
In the 'Notification Settings' property page, configure the following settings:
- In the SMTP host field, type: smtp.office365.com
- In the SMTP port field, type: 587
- In the Connection Security selection box, select STARTTLS
- Enable the Server requires Authentication checkbox, and use your Microsoft Office365 login (e.g. support@activexperts.onmicrosoft.com) and password
- In the Sender's e-mail field, type the Office365 account exactly as specified in the Authentication field above (e.g. support@activexperts.onmicrosoft.com)
