Can someone write up an "idea" that these all be accessible from one configuration point?
- All the stuff on CHGSMTPA, especially Forwarding mailhub server . . . FWDHUBSVR
- The environment variables: QIBM_SMTP_RLY_TLS_FIRST and QIBM_SMTP_SERVER_PORT
- Loading all the standard certs into the system store (which is already in the new Navigator so a link pointing to an existing function from this "one stop setup" point would be nice).
- A reminder to allow your server or Google (or other such remote) to allow the address of your IBM i to relay.
- Perhaps a reminder to configure routing (and how) so that your outbound smtp always binds to this IP address if your IBM i supports multiple IP addresses.

I know there are those who believe that "if it isn't green, it isn't a screen" but I'd be ok if this was all in Navigator.

If not an idea, how about a sample config, much like what James went through, written up as a tech note example?

Even though James tried to document this in his summary I'm sure he's already forgotten some of the steps.
