Cannot send email without authentication

[BillP]

I'm trying to set up notification via email but when I leave the user name and password blank in the area where I would put the SMTP server authentication, I get an error telling me that I need to enter something for the user name field. How am I supposed to configure the NMC so it doesn't require a user name and password? I have an AP9630.

Thanks

it is a little silly but just leave User in the username field (which is the default). that field cannot be null. that will change in a future release but it shouldnt matter if your server never requests authentication. the password and confirm password fields can be blank.

Thank you very much for your help. I got the email notifications working now.
