I have a dedicated server and it is running Windows Server 2008 OS. I did not purchase any mail server or services.<br />
<br />
I install an third party application &quot;File manager&quot; and it works fine. However, I could not get the email notification to work because the server does not have any mail enable.<br />
<br />
Inside the advance setting of the file manager application, I can point the smtp to another server which is my Exchange 2010 server. However, it still does not work even it put all the correct information,<br />
<br />
However, inside my server, I am using plesk control panel there is this option called External SMTP Server and I am not sure what to set that.<br />
<br />
Can anybody help as the file manager developer says that I have to set that.<br />
<br />
Please advise
