2. Select Email Notifications from the Global Server Options category.

3. Enter a notification Account name.

4. Enter a notification account Email address.

5. Select Always use the notification email account for the return address to use the notification email account.

6. Select Only use notification account if the logged in user’s email address is blank to use the notification email account if the logged in user did not provide an email address.

7. Enter a Server host name for file email links to set the network address to use with file hyperlinks sent in email notifications.

Surround SCM uses the hostname of the Surround SCM Server computer. Make sure you use a network address that all computers can resolve, such as an IP address. You may want to use the same address that is provided to users when they set up a server connection.

Hyperlinks do not work if notifications are sent to users with computers that cannot resolve the hostname (for example, computers in a different subnet).
