   b. Select Send using SMTP then click Next to proceed and continue to step 9 below.
9. Specify the following information:
1. SMTP Server: This is the SMTP server of your internet service provider (ISP). More and more ISPs require a username and password when sending emails using SMTP. If this is the case with your ISP, you won't be able to email pay slips using the Send using SMTP option .
2. Reply address: This provides a reply address for the email.
3. Send a copy to the reply address: This option allows a copy of the pay slip to also be sent to the specified Reply address. In Payroll 2012 and later this option is not available if the Send via Email software option is selected.
4. Message: This allows a customised message to be added to the email containing the pay slips.
   
   
   When you've finished, a report will be displayed showing which pay slips have emailed successfully and which have failed.

Firewall settings may prevent programs such as MYOB Payroll from sending outgoing emails. If you encounter interference from your firewall when emailing pay slips, you may need to modify the rules or exceptions that control blocked applications and allow MYOB Payroll. Check the documentation for your firewall software for details on how to do this, or seek advice from an IT professional.
