Having a lot of trouble with this. I am logged in as the “metasfresh” user.

I can browse to here:  
Home / System / EMail / Outbound EMail Server (SMTP)

I am stuck on adding a server or edit "test@localhost.org"

Thanks,  
Terry

actually for my setup, I cant edit or add anything in Outbound SMTP for either of the two generic roles (metasfresh / it).

UPDATE: You can add an SMTP Server of your choosing by clicking the 3 dots on the left top corner. Didn’t get that before either… _facepalm_
