As such, IIS SMTP server is not a pre-requisite because the mail gateway can be a remote server. However, if you want to use IIS SMTP server to send mail, do the following: -<br><br>1) set Outbound Email gateway server address to "localhost"<br>2) ensure IIS SMTP server is installed and running<br>3) open IIS Manager (Start > Programs > Administrative Tools > IIS manager)<br>4) right-click "Default SMTP virtual server" and select Properties<br>5) click on the Access tab > Relay button<br>6) if "Only the list below" is selected, click Add and enter 127.0.0.1<br>7) apply changes and send a test message from the VSA server</li> </ul></div> <p> </p> <div> <ul><li> <strong>Applies To </strong><br>Kaseya VSA v5.2 and above</li> </ul></div> </div> <div> </div> <div><a href="/home/leaving?allowTrusted=1&target=http%3A%2F%2Fcommunity.kaseya.com%2Fkb%2Fw%2Fwiki%2Ftags%2FIIS%2BSMTP%2Bserver%2Fdefault.aspx" rel="nofollow tag">IIS SMTP server</a>, <a href="/home/leaving?allowTrusted=1&target=http%3A%2F%2Fcommunity.kaseya.com%2Fkb%2Fw%2Fwiki%2Ftags%2Fsystem%2Fdefault.aspx" rel="nofollow tag">system</a>, <a href="/home/leaving?allowTrusted=1&target=http%3A%2F%2Fcommunity.kaseya.com%2Fkb%2Fw%2Fwiki%2Ftags%2FTicketing%2Fdefault.aspx" rel="nofollow tag">Ticketing</a>, <a href="/home/leaving?allowTrusted=1&target=http%3A%2F%2Fcommunity.kaseya.com%2Fkb%2Fw%2Fwiki%2Ftags%2Fv5-2%2Band%2Babove%2Fdefault.aspx" rel="nofollow tag">v5.2 and above</a>, <a href="/home/leaving?allowTrusted=1&target=http%3A%2F%2Fcommunity.kaseya.com%2Fkb%2Fw%2Fwiki%2Ftags%2Fhow_2D00_to%2Fdefault.aspx" rel="nofollow tag">how-to</a>, <a href="/home/leaving?allowTrusted=1&target=http%3A%2F%2Fcommunity.kaseya.com%2Fkb%2Fw%2Fwiki%2Ftags%2Fcore%2Fdefault.aspx" rel="nofollow tag">core</a>, <a href="/home/leaving?allowTrusted=1&target=http%3A%2F%2Fcommunity.kaseya.com%2Fkb%2Fw%2Fwiki%2Ftags%2FK2_2F00_G1%2Fdefault.aspx" rel="nofollow tag">K2/G1</a></div> </article> </main>
