Hello,
I am trying to setup email alerts on a PowerEdge R430 with iDRAC8. We use Office 365 for our email. I tried many different combinations of settings but I always end up with the error "RAC0225: Sending the test mail failed." when I try to send a test email.
I used the SMTP settings provided in this page: support.office.com/.../POP-and-IMAP-settings-for-Outlook-Office-365-for-business-7fc677eb-2491-4cbc-8153-8e7113525f6c
DNS and other network settings and all set correctly in iDRAC. I also tried setting the DNS Domain Name field with Office 365 domain name as recommended is some Reddit page but the problem still persists. I also tried using the SMTP server IP address instead of the domain name and tried using port 25 as well.
Your help is much appreciated.
