smtp_sasl_auth_enable = No
smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtp_tls_security_level = may
header_size_limit = 4096000
relayhost = [fqdnofemailserver]:25

3. Edit the lines to have hash symbols in the front by pressing the "i" key to enter into "INSERT" mode. It should resemble what is show below:

#smtp_sasl_auth_enable = No
#smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
#smtp_tls_security_level = may
#header_size_limit = 4096000
#relayhost = [localhost]:25

EMAIL_HOST='localhost'

10. Restart the postfix services:

11. Restart the Mobility Suite services:

/etc/init.d/appcenter-services restart

Once the postfix and Mobility Suite services have been restarted the Front End Server should be able to send out emails on its own.
