Hi,

I’m looking into reading the email server settings from XProtect from the VideoOS.Platform.ConfigurationItems.ToolOptionMailServer class. The problem I’m having is that the SmtpPassword property seems to return the password encrypted. How can I get the password decrypted?

There is currently no way to get the SmtpPassword in a decrypted state. Please see this thread where the issue is discussed and a possible workaround mentioned.
