How are additional recipients added to a "Send Mail" action?

The "Send Mail" action is configured within a specific policy to ensure notifications are relevant to the endpoints matched by that policy. When adding this action, the configuration dialog box appears. The "Parameters" tab within this dialog is used to define additional recipients beyond the primary one (often the endpoint user). Multiple email addresses must be entered in the "Additional Recipients" field, using commas as the separator. This allows for granular control over who is notified for each specific policy violation or event.

A: Global mail server settings are configured under Tools > Options > Email, not for adding recipients to a specific policy action.

C: This user interface path (Tools > Options > Advanced - Mail) for adding mail recipients does not exist in the Forescout Console.

D: This user interface path (Tools > Options > NAC Email) is incorrect; global email settings are configured under a different menu.

E: Policy sub-rules and conditions are used to define the criteria for matching endpoints, not for configuring the parameters of an action.

1. Forescout Administration Guide, Version 8.4.2, Chapter 18: "Working with Policies", Section: "Actions Pane", Subsection: "Send Mail", Page 499. The guide states: "In the Parameters tab, you can define additional recipients for the email message... In the Additional Recipients field, enter the email addresses of the additional recipients, separated by commas."

2. Forescout Administration Guide, Version 8.2, Chapter 17: "Working with Policies", Section: "Actions", Subsection: "Send Mail", Page 453. This earlier version also confirms the procedure: "In the Parameters tab... In the Additional Recipients field, enter the email addresses of the additional recipients, separated by commas."
