Adding E-Mail Recipients

Before you add an e-mail destination, you must configure an SMTP Server (see Adding SMTP Servers), or a JavaMail session in WebLogic Server (see Configure access to JavaMail in Administration Console Online Help). If there are no SMTP Server resources or JavaMail sessions available, configured, you cannot configure an e-mail recipient.

  1. Select Send an alert via e-mail from the drop-down list and click Add to display the Add E-mail Recipient page.
  2. In the Mail Recipients field, enter an e-mail recipient in the format: mailto:username@hostname
  3. This is a required field.

    You can specify multiple e-mail recipients by entering the user names and hostnames in a comma-separated list. For example, mailto:username@hostname [,username_1@hostname_1]...[,username_n@hostname_n]

    Only the first mail recipient needs to be prefixed with the text "mailto:".

  4. In the SMTP Server field, select the name of the SMTP Server for the outgoing e-mail. This field is not required if a mail session is selected in the next step.
  5. In the Mail Session field, select an available mail session. This field is not required if an SMTP Server is selected in the previous step.
  6. In the From Name field, provide a sender's name for the alert notification. This field is optional.
  7. In the From Address field, provide a valid e-mail address. This field is required if a value for "From Name" field is specified.
  8. In the Reply To Name field, provide a name to which a reply may be addressed. This field is optional.
  9. In the Reply To Address field, provide an e-mail address to which a reply may be sent. This field is required if a value for "Reply To Name" field is specified.
  10. In the Connection Timeout field, enter the number of seconds a connection must wait for a response from the server before timing out. The default value is 0.
  11. In the Request Encoding field, enter a character set encoding value. The default encoding value is iso-8859-1.
  12. Click Save. The e-mail recipient is added to the list of e-mail recipients for this alert destination and saved in the current session.
