How to Configure an SMTP Send Handler

  2. In the expanded adapter list, click SMTP, in the right pane, right-click the send handler that you want to configure, and then click Properties.

  3. In the Adapter Handler Properties dialog box, on the General tab, in the Host Name list, select the host with which the send handler will be associated, and then click Properties.
