NotifyLink Requirements for System Administrators
Telecommunications NotifyLink service requires minimal reconfiguration on the requesting party's email server. Once the email server meets the requirements for the initial user request, subsequent user request will not require additional server configuration.
- IMAP over SSL (993) service enabled on the email server is preferred. If not available, regular IMAP (143) will work.
- Default port for email server personal information manager (PIM) must be available:
| GroupWise | port 1677 |
| Exchange | port 80 |
| Exchange over SSL | port 443 |
| Kerio | port 8080 |
| MDaemon | port 3000 |
| Mirapoint | port 80 |
| Oracle | port 7779 |
| Sun | ports 80 and 3080 |
| Zimbra | port 80 |
The NotifyLink server sends and receives email with the email server using IMAP over SSL. NotifyLink also uses the default email server port (see list above) to access PIM items such as calendar, contacts, and tasks.
Running NotifyLink service does NOT require that the IMAP over SSL or PIM ports be open on the campus firewall. However if there is a departmental firewall between the email server and the rest of the campus network, IMAP over SSL and PIM ports need to be opened.
