Endpoint Protection

Hi all, hopefully you can help with a minor issue that's bugging me!

While all alerts are setup and running fine, the display e-mail address is the default 'system@"servername".com - is there any way to change this?

Since you said "While all alerts are setup and running fine....." Can you help us with the issue in the following blog...

I've not found a way, and I've looked off and on for months. Pretty much clicked everything.

Yes there is!  You need to setup an E.mail address (AD Account, Stand alone Email address) on the server that you would like the system to use.

On page 260 of the "Administration guide" from the CD1 from Symantec:

 

To establish communication between Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager and email servers

1 In the console, click Admin, and then click Server.

2 Under View Servers, select the management server for which you want toestablish a connection to the email server.

3 Under Tasks, click Edit Server Properties.

4 In the Server Properties dialog box, click the Mail Server tab.

5 Type the IP address, host name, or domain name of the email server in theServer Address text box.

6 Type the user name of the account on the email server in the User Name textbox. 
**You need to add a user name only if the email server requires authentication.

7 In the Server Properties dialog box, type the password of an account on theemail server in the Password text box.
**You need to add a password only if the email server requires authentication

8 Click OK.

But what if you have no control over the accounts?
I could tell SAV to send as if from infection@iowa.gov and it did just that, no email account needed.
The servers are controlled by ITE - I can't just ask for an account without having a real live body and it's a process that requires approval and an employee to match the account.
It's all active directory, so there's no authentication - the password changes when it expires and you change it.
I do miss that ability from SAV - I could use a different "from" address for each alert or email type, and I did just that, phoney ones.

In this case, I'd have to use my own name.......... not sure how the password would work since it changes every few days.
