Connection
 Table of Contents
Number of Outgoing Connections
The maximum number of connections the program will establish in the
mail sending process. When the sending process is activated, the program
is able to send up to 20 messages in the Free and maximum of 50 messages
in the Professional
Edition at the same time.
DNS Timeout
The time after which the program will stop attempting to establish connection
with the DNS server. In case that, in the set time interval, the program
cannot connect to the DNS server or receives no reply from it, the message
whose delivery created the problem will not be sent and will remain in
the Outbox. If the problem with the DNS server persists, no message from
the Outbox will be sent.
With DNS errors, the program does not see the problem as related to
the message itself, to the recipient's e-mail address, or the server to
which the message is to be delivered. Therefore, it will not increase
the number of unsuccessful attempts indicated on the counter.
Server Timeout
If the program does not receive any reply from a remote server after
the expiration of the server timeout time interval, PostCast Server will
report an error in the message delivery.
Firewall Support
The Professional
Edition can connect to the Internet through a firewall or proxy server.
If the only way to connect to the Internet on you LAN is through the firewall,
you can use this option to run the program even if the direct connection
to the Internet is not available. It
is also possible to connect to your ISP's socks proxy server if it is
provided by the ISP. See this page
for more information. |
