17 Managing the Mail Service 17-1 17 Managing the Mail Service This chapter describes how to configure and manage the Mail service for WebCenter applications. It also describes how to configure the Send Mail feature, which allows application resources to send mail directly from them. The Send Mail feature does not require the Mail service. That is, even if the Mail service has not been configured in your application, users can send mail notifications with the local mail client. For more information on using the Send Mail notifications, see the section What You Should Know About the Send Mail Feature in Oracle Fusion Middleware Users Guide for Oracle WebCenter. Always use Fusion Middleware Control or WLST command-line tool to review and configure back-end services for WebCenter applications. Any changes that you make to WebCenter applications, post deployment, are stored in MDS metatdata store as customizations. See Section 1.3.5, WebCenter Configuration Considerations.
