CONFIGURING


Updating the SMTP configuration

The SMTP service controls the SMTP listener on the Domino® server. By default, whenever you restart the SMTP service, and at two-minute intervals thereafter, the SMTP service automatically checks the NOTES.INI file, Configuration Settings document, and Server document to see if any settings have changed. If the service detects that settings have changed, it rebuilds its internal configuration to incorporate the changes.

Procedure
