Configuring proxy emails and proxy email exceptions

The purpose of a proxy email is to enable you to send all outbound emails from the system to a single email address. This is useful in a non-production environment whose users share email addresses with a production environment. By setting up a proxy email address in the non-production environment, you could prevent production users from receiving unnecessary emails. This feature also includes the ability to set up exceptions so that some emails still go to their usual email address. The outbound emails that go to the proxy email include those from Async and Infor Process Automation.

You use two configuration parameters in the email category to enable this feature. They are mail.proxy and mail.proxy.exceptions. You can turn off this feature by removing the values from the parameters.

The parameters can be set in the application data area or in the tenant environment data area. Settings in application data areas override a setting in the tenant environment data area.

Category	Parameter Name	Description
email	mail.proxy	Specify a proxy email address to which to send all outbound emails. If this parameter is not set, then emails go to their usual destinations.
email	mail.proxy.exceptions	Specify a regular expression to be applied to non-proxy email addresses to determine whether or not a particular email address is exempt from being sent to the proxy email address. To set up a regular expression, consult standard resources on Java regular expression syntax.
