B2B SMTP Client Adapter
The B2B SMTP Client adapter uses SMTP to send documents to remote and local mail servers.
CAUTION:
With V5.2.6 and higher, the security protocol version the B2B SMTP Client
adapter uses is defaulted in b2bMailsvs.properties to TLS 1.2. If your mail
server uses TLS 1.0 or 1.1, you must update the value of the mail.sslProtocol
property to set the proper TLS version. Otherwise, sending documents using SMTP will
fail.
