Check SMTP connectivity when a mail issue reaches support

Get a targeted SMTP check into the investigation without switching through multiple tools first.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

SMTP Lookup

Tool to perform an smtp test on the specified domain. use when verifying smtp connectivity for a domain.

Why this helps

When email delivery stalls, the first useful connectivity check can get delayed by interruptions and context switching.

  • Run a focused SMTP test from a relevant incoming signal.
  • Keep the finding close to the support conversation.
  • Make the first diagnostic step more repeatable.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Supportbee and Mx toolbox to Notis once in the portal.
  • 2Create an automation named Check SMTP connectivity after a mail issue report.
  • 3Add one plain-language instruction to use webhook context and Supportbee details to run an Mx toolbox SMTP lookup for the specified domain and report the result.
  • 4Choose an incoming webhook trigger and a run-report channel.
  • 5Test using a representative mail issue and domain.
