This will enable alarm acknowledgement by email. Selecting yes will enable reading of the Incoming Email Server and add an Alarm Acknowledgement message to the outgoing Alarm Email allowing users to use the reply feature to send an email to the Pop3 account and acknowledge the Alarm. An Incoming Email Account (Pop3) must be configured.
The default Alarm email is of the following form:
From:
scadanode1@cwo.com [mailto:scadanode1@cwo.com]

The Alarm Acknowledgement is of the following form

If users are to Acknowledge Alarms via a reply email, it is recommended to include the address for the Incoming POP3 email account as at least one entry in the Email From field.
