The administrator can configure iHub to send e-mail notification to users and groups about completed jobs. After configuring iHub to send e‑mail notifications, users trigger notification by setting an option in the schedule of a job.

By default, iHub uses Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) to send the e‑mail. iHub must connect to an SMTP server that the administrator configures using Configuration Console. To perform e‑mail notification, iHub must have the View service enabled. On Linux, iHub also supports sendmail.

To set up SMTP e-mail notification in Advanced view, the administrator enables SMTP and specifies a maximum message size.
