ReadyNAS 314 - Email alerts via Office 365 smtp relay
Firmware: 6.4.2 I am having difficulty with sending email alerts from this ReadyNAS via Office 365 SMTP relay. I confirmed on other devices on the same network that the Receive connector is setup ...

Well, some more tweaking and I realized that I merely had to follow Microsoft's instructions. The SMTP relay doesn't require credentials. So, even though it worked within Veeam, the ReadyNAS wouldn't allow this to work. I pulled the username and password, leaving only the SMTP server, port and from address and it worked fine.

Hi wrobbins,
Welcome to the community!
I can see that this setup is not common and the workaround that you did could help other community members who are using the same email provider and setup. Maybe you can share some screenshots?
Kind regards,
