E-mail Exchange between KEN! and the Internet
78 KEN! – 4 Overview of KEN!
• If your E-mail provider works with “SMTP after POP”,
KEN! must pick up all E-mail before sending any. The
authentication performed when KEN! picks up mail re-
mains valid for a defined period of time during which
KEN! can send E-mail.
• SMTP authentication means that KEN! logs in to the
SMTP server with a user name and password in order
send E-mail.
Your E-mail provider informs you which procedure it uses to
check that you are authorized to send E-mail.
Sending and Receiving over a Secure Connection (SSL)
KEN! allows you to use SSL encryption for all communication
between the E-mail provider and KEN! transmitted during E-
mail exchange with the Internet. Encryption ensures that nei-
ther the POP3 login nor the E-mail data can be read by out-
side parties. SSL support by the E-mail provider’s POP3 serv-
er and SMTP server is a prerequisite for protected E-mail re-
ception.
Internal E-Mail address
It is also possible to create E-mail addresses for purely inter-
nal E-mail traffic in your KEN! network. Because no exchange
with the Internet occurs for these E-mail addresses, no POP3
and SMTP server data are necessary.

ry of the E-mail from the Internet and the messages to be

vice PC.
