Metasys software features an email encryption capability that encrypts user names and passwords as they are entered into the SMP UI. Embedded and server machines can thereby send emails to email servers over a secure channel (secure socket layer [SSL]). The entire email payload is encrypted, and allows Metasys software to communicate to email servers that require SSL connections.
Users can configure email encryption with no authentication required, including SMTP authentication, and POP-Before-SMTP authentication.
