I have iDRAC 6 Express but I can't seem find any documentations outlining how to setup Email Alert to send through an secure SMTP server (ie Gmail's SMTP server).

After looking through the documentation and suchlike, it appears that iDRAC6 does not support SMTP-auth at all.

Even the full iDRAC 6 (ie., not Express) doesn't have the option for authenticating an SMTP server. – Paul Kroon Aug 19 '10 at 18:06
Blah, that's unfortunate. Does anyone know if OpenManager support authenticated SMTP? (Though I'm hesitated to install it due to performance problem...) – BlueFox Aug 19 '10 at 20:38
It's 2012 and seemingly there's still no auth options. I'd not call that unfortunate I'd call it an epic fail :) – Stephen Kennedy Apr 11 '12 at 15:17
