» SMTP port – Specify the SMTP port through which the transmission will take place. By

» From – Specify the account from where the email will be sent. For example you can
specify the email address used by GFI Network Server Monitor for generic alerts.
» To – Specify the email address of the Clickatell SMS gateway (i.e., the address where GFI
Network Server Monitor will send emails for conversion to SMS). This address is provided
by Clickatell (i.e., by the SMS gateway provider). By default, this property is set to
[e-mail].
Leave this property as default, unless otherwise specified by Clickatell.
» CC* - (Optional parameter) Specify the email address where you wish to forward copies of
the emails sent to the web based SMS gateway.
» Subject* - (Optional parameter) Specify the text which you want to include in the email‟s

number supplied to you by Clickatell after you subscribe for the service. Format this
parameter as follows: api_id:<API ID No>.
If you don‟t know your API ID, ask Clickatell to supply you with this information.

when the template email is generated. The contents of this property are formatted as
follows: to:[smsnumber]
