Force recipient of all e-mails

If an e-mail is specified here, all emails sent by Pure will be sent to this email address instead of who it was originally for.

This is mostly used for Test instances of Pure, so it does not accidentally send out email to all your users, but you still want to test that email are sent.

Comma separated list of email addresses that should be excluded from the Force recipient of all e-mail configuration.

From e-mail address

Usually there is no need for changing this. If change needed, make sure the new From e-mail address is a valid address on the mail server.

Mail host user name

If the SMTP server requires a username to send out emails it should be specified here.

Mail host password

Only send e-mail messages to users that have been logged in to Pure

If this is enabled Pure will only send out emails to users that have been logged in to Pure.

Enabling this option will ensure internally-managed users will receive emails even if the "Forces recipient of all emails" has been set. This option is complementary to the explicit email whitelist.
