System Options That Control SMTP E-Mail

Several SAS system options control SMTP e-mail. Depending on your operating environment and whether the SMTP e-mail interface is supported at your site, you might need to specify these options at start-up or in your SAS configuration file.
Operating Environment Information: To determine the default e-mail interface for your operating environment and to determine the correct syntax for setting system options, refer to the SAS documentation for your operating environment.
The EMAILSYS system option specifies which e-mail system to use for sending electronic mail from within SAS. For more information about the EMAILSYS system option, refer to the SAS documentation for your operating environment.
The following system options are specified only when the SMTP e-mail interface is supported at your site:
EMAILAUTHPROTOCOL=
specifies the authentication protocol for SMTP E-mail. For more information, see the EMAILAUTHPROTOCOL= System Option in SAS System Options: Reference.
