Tell SMTP Update Config

By default, whenever you restart the SMTP service, and at two-minute intervals thereafter, the SMTP service automatically checks the NOTES.INI file, Configuration Settings document, and Server document to see if any settings have changes. If the service detects that settings have changed, it rebuilds its internal configuration to incorporate the changes.

The Tell SMTP Update Config server console command will manually trigger such a service update. Using the console command allows Administrators to immediately put into effect changes to the SMTP configuration without disrupting normal service operation.
