Email notifications can be sent from several locations within Jet Hub. To use this feature, your organization's email system must support SMTP (Simplified Mail Transfer Protocol), and a system administrator must configure Jet Hub with the specific settings for that email system.

6. In the From section, mention the email address from which the reports will be sent (if using a different email address, then the user running the tasks must be an alias or must have a shared inbox).

7. In Port, change the port number or leave it as is if you want to use the default port number.
