tsm email

Use the tsm email command to view and test your SMTP configuration.

For more information about configuring SMTP, see Configure SMTP Setup.

tsm email test-smtp-connection

Run this command to test the STMP connection. When run, TSM will attempt to establish a connection with the SMTP server that you have configured for Tableau Server. TSM will also return a connection status and the details of the SMTP configuration.

In some cases, the command will return a false-positive status. For example, if your Postfix SMTP server is set to require TLS, but Tableau Server is not configured for TLS, the connection is established and TSM will report a succesful connection. However, in this scenario, Postfix actually rejects the email message after TSM has connected.
