(Optional) Defining port numbers when using the E-mail Adapter

The E-mail Adapter is available for use in maps run on your UNIX System Services (USS) runtime environment.

To ensure correct operation of the E-mail Adapter, you need to define the port numbers for SMTP and pop3 in the TCPIP.ETC.SERVICES or /etc/services files.

  1. Define the well-known port number for SMTP as 25.
  2. Define the well-known port number for pop3 as 110.
    For a complete list and discussion of well-known port numbers, see the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) website at http://www.iana.org.
