Summary: Learn how to install and configure the SMTP service and configure outgoing email for a SharePoint Server 2016 and SharePoint 2013 farm.

This article describes how to configure outgoing email for a farm or for a specific web application for SharePoint Server. This article also describes how to install and configure the SMTP service that you must use to enable outgoing email.

After you have installed SharePoint Server and completed the initial configuration of your server farm, you can configure outgoing email. Doing so enables users to create alerts to track such site items as lists, libraries, and documents. In addition, site administrators can receive administrative messages about site administrator issues, such as the information that site owners have exceeded their specified storage space. For more information, see Plan outgoing email for a SharePoint Server farm.

To configure outgoing email for a specific web application, first configure the default outgoing email for all web applications in the farm. If you configure the outgoing email for a specific web application, that configuration will override the default configuration for all web applications in the farm.

You can also configure outgoing email for a specific web application by using Microsoft PowerShell. For more information, see the "Configure the settings for a specific web application" section in SharePoint Server 2016 outgoing email configuration settings.

Before you begin

Before you begin this operation, review the following information about prerequisites:

Your computer is running SharePoint Server 2016, SharePoint Server 2013, or SharePoint Foundation 2013.
One or more servers in the server farm are running the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) service and have a valid SMTP server address. Alternatively, you must know the name of a server outside the farm that is running the SMTP service.

Install and configure the SMTP service

Before you can enable outgoing email, you must determine which SMTP server to use. This SMTP server must be configured to allow anonymous SMTP email submissions. The SMTP server can be a server in the farm or outside the farm.

备注

If your organization does not allow anonymous SMTP email messages to be sent by using Exchange Server, you can use a local SMTP server in the SharePoint farm that accepts anonymous email messages. The local SMTP server automatically authenticates the messages and then forwards them to the computer that’s running Exchange Server.

Install the SMTP service

To install the SMTP service, use the Add Features Wizard in Server Manager. The wizard creates a default SMTP configuration. You can customize this default SMTP configuration to meet the requirements of your organization.

If you've already installed the SMTP service on a server, skip to Configure the SMTP service.

To install the SMTP service

Verify that the user account that is performing this procedure is a member of the Administrators group on the application server.
Open Server Manager, click Manage, and select Add Roles and Features.
Click Next until the Select features page appears, select SMTP Server, click Add Features, and then click Next..
On the Confirm Installation Selections page, click Install.
On the Installation Results page, check that the installation finished successfully, and then click Close.

Configure the SMTP service

After you install the SMTP service, you configure it to send email messages from servers in the farm.

You can decide to send relayed email messages to all servers except those that you specifically exclude. Alternatively, you can block messages to all servers except those that you specifically include. You can include servers individually or in groups by subnet or domain.

If you enable anonymous access and relayed email messages, you increase the possibility that the SMTP server will be used to relay unsolicited commercial email messages (spam). It is important to limit this possibility by carefully configuring mail servers to help protect against spam. One way that you can do this is by limiting relayed email messages to a list of specific servers or to a domain, and by preventing relayed email messages from all other servers.

备注

To manage the SMTP service on Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows Server 2016, you must use Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 Manager. Ensure that you install IIS 6.0 Management tools in Server Manager.

To install IIS 6.0 Management tools

Verify that you have the following administrative credentials:
- You must be a member of the Administrators group on the front-end web server.
Open Server Manager, click Manage, and select Add Roles and Features.
Click Next until the Select server roles page appears, select Management Tools and IIS 6 Management compatibility, and then click Install.
In Application Server section, click Add Role Services.
On the Select Role Services page, select Management Tools and IIS 6 Management compatibility, and then click Install.

To configure the SMTP service

Verify that the user account that is performing this procedure is a member of the Administrators group on the application server.
Open Server Manager, click Tools, and select click Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0 Manager.
In IIS 管理器, expand the server name that contains the SMTP server that you want to configure.
Right-click the SMTP virtual server that you want to configure, and then click Start, and then right-click the server again and click Properties.
On the Access tab, in the Access control area, click Authentication.
In the Authentication dialog box, verify that Anonymous access is selected, and click OK.
On the Access tab, in the Relay restrictions area, click Relay.
To enable relayed email messages to any server, click All except the list below.
To accept relayed email messages from one or more specific servers, follow these steps:
- Click Only the list below.
- Click Add, and then add servers one at a time by IP address, or in groups by using a subnet or domain.
- Click OK three times to close the Computer, Relay Restrictions, and Properties dialog boxes.

Ensure that the SMTP service is running and set to start automatically. To do this, use the following procedure.

To set the SMTP service to start automatically

Open Server Manager, click Tools, and then click Services.
In Services, right-click Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), and then select Properties.
In the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) Properties dialog box, on the General tab, in the Startup type list, select Automatic, and then click OK.

Configure outgoing email for a farm

You can configure outgoing email for a farm by using SharePoint 管理中心网站. Use the following procedures to configure outgoing email. After you complete the procedures, users can track changes and updates to individual site collections. In addition, site administrators can, for example, receive notices when users request access to a site.

To configure outgoing email for a farm by using Central Administration

Verify that the user account that is performing this procedure is a member of the Farm Administrators group on the server that is running 管理中心.
In Central Administration, click System Settings.
On the System Settings page, in the E-Mail and Text Messages (SMS) section, click Configure outgoing e-mail settings.
On the Outgoing E-Mail Settings page, in the Mail Settings section, type the SMTP server name for outgoing email (for example, mail.example.com) in the Outbound SMTP server box.
In the From address box, type the email address as you want it to be displayed to email recipients.
In the Reply-to address box, type the email address to which you want email recipients to reply.
In the Use TLS connection encryption box, select Yes or No in the drop-down box.
In the SMTP server port box, type the port number for your SMTP. By default, SMTP is configured on port 25.
In the Character set list, select the character set that is appropriate for your language.
Click OK.

Configure outgoing email for a specific web application
