Can Sage X3 nodemailer retry send email at later time on any failed email send?

From Community Hub link: https://communityhub.sage.com/us/sage_x3/f/general-discussion/226683/can-sage-x3-nodemailer-retry-send-email-at-later-time-on-any-failed-email-send/553140

For Sage X3 v12p35, Administration > Notification Servers.

I need to maintain a SMTP Server where the email sender password is required to reset every 3 months (auditor requirement).

What would happen if email sender password expire and how to handle the downtime until IT team reset password and replace email sender password in SMTP Server?


From Microsoft IIS6 SMTP Server (broken install since Windows Server 2019, some registry tinkering needed), there is a email queue feature which all emails to be sent are dumped in Queue folder. For failed send, the email will stay here until either success or after failing a certain number of time. I would like to reduce/remove support of this IIS6 SMTP Server since it has stopped support by Microsoft in new Sage X3 implementation.

I believe there was a hmailserver setup in a UK Sage X3 Support post but hmailserver developers have dropped all support.

For Sage X3 Notification Server's SMTP type, can the nodemailer have the email queue feature to keep email in queue in case of failed send and retry send later? When I tested it, it can send but on fail it dropped the email completely.
