any problem related to sending emails using SMTP server in PeopleSoft, Enable SMTP trace option at appserver or process scheudler server
level. This will produce the smtp log file giving us more details about
why the send email is failing.

add/update the following in your appserver configuration (psappserv.cfg) or
batch server Configuration (psprcs.cfg) under SMTP Settings.

setting is dynamic and does not require reboot of the Server. it will
generate Trace file SMTP.LOG in LOGS Folder under
