Hi All,
I am trying to learn on notifications and part of it was creating inbound email actions. But there was no email account configured in PDI. can anyone please help on how i can configure an email account.
I have seen at places that its not possible to send and receive emails. In that case, please let me what can we give for username and password if i am configuring as per the screenshot in case if i am working in a real time project , i want to know what needs to be given in these places.
Thanks in Advance

That would be the user name and password of your email account.

No, as I mentioned before: that would be the user name and password of your email account.

Hi Mark,
Sorry I am not getting it, is what you are referring an external account, where we may send and receive emails, something like maybe a gmail one.
Thanks
