What is smtpSendTestMsg?

A write-triggered enumerated value (send or noAction) that fires off a test email using the previously configured server, sender, recipients, subject, and content. Admins use this to validate the entire SMTP alert pipeline without waiting for a real trap event to occur, then check smtpSendTestStatus for the outcome. For example, setting smtpSendTestMsg to send(1) after configuring smtpSrvAddr and smtpMailReceiverAddr confirms the switch can actually reach the mail server and deliver a message.
