Email (SMTP) Preferences
SMTP server presets can be selected when sending emails using either the "Send Email" on
page602 or "Send Test Email" on page604 dialogs. See also: "Email header settings" on
page320. For all presets, the password is not saved and must be re-entered when sending
emails.
l
The Add, Edit and Delete buttons let you create and manage the presets.
l
SMTP Host Settings: These settings can be made or edited after clicking the Add or Edit
button.
l
Name: The name of the preset. This will show up in the Send Email dialog.
l
Host: The SMTP server through which the emails are to be sent. Can be a host
(mail.domain.com) or an IP address.
l
Port: The specified port number will be added to the host name, for example:
smtp.mandrillapp.com:465.
l
Use authentication: Check if a user name and password are needed to send
emails through the host.
l
Start TLS: Enabled if authentication is checked. Sends emails through Transport
Layer Security (TLS), which is sometimes referred to as SSL.
l
User: Enter the user name used to connect to the SMTP server.
l
Restore Defaults: There are three default presets, each for working with a different Email
Service Provider (ESP): Mandrilapp.com, Sendgrid and Mailgun (see "Using an ESP with
PlanetPress Connect" on page820).
l
Apply: Apply the new settings without closing the Preferences dialog.
Emmet Preferences
Emmet is a framework that enables the lightning-fast creation of HTML code though the use of
a simple and effective shortcut language resembling CSS Selectors (see "Emmet" on
page309). The Emmet functionality is available in the HTML and CSS source editors of
Connect Designer. Emmet transforms abbreviations for HTML elements and CSS properties to
the respective source code.
This is, for example, the abbreviation for a <div> element with the class row:
div.row
On pressing the Tab key, this abbreviation is transformed to:
