Member Role where OTP Use is Required - Choose a member role for which use of OTP will be required. If the members you want to be required to use OTP do not match a current role group perfectly, simply create a new member role and associate them with that new Role.

Member Role where OTP Use is Optional - Choose a member role for which use of OTP will be optional. If the members you want to be required to use OTP do not match a current role group perfectly, simply create a new member role and associate them with that new Role.

Allows you to specify which email account should be used to send the OTP emails. The emails themseleves will be sent using whatever outbound email settings are in place on the EE system, so this information is primarily for information purposes: the email credentials do not have to link to the EE server at all if you do not want them to. Some email spam checking systems will mark-down messages that contain obviously spurious email credentials, so making a sensible choice here will help ensure the OTP system works well.
