Hello,

I think that the answer here is wrong and that the correct answer is
A.Modify the Rsmgrpolicy.config file.

Explanation :

rssrvpolicy.config :
The report server policy configuration file. These security policies primarily affect report expressions and custom assemblies once a report is deployed to a report server. This policy file also affects custom data, delivery, rendering and security extensions deployed to the report server.

rsmgrpolicy.config :
Report Manager policy configuration file. These security policies affect all assemblies that extend Report Manager; for example, subscription user interface extensions for custom delivery.

Source : https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms152828

I think “subscription user interface extensions for custom delivery” is the key.

Feel free to comment if you think another way

For SSRS Native mode it’s correct.
However this seems to be “SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) instance in SharePoint
mode”, so I think it’s D

You right.
B is for administrator alerts and notifications:
“Specify the SMTP mail server to use for Microsoft SharePoint Foundation e-mail-based notifications for alerts, invitations, and administrator notifications. Personalize the From address and Reply-to address”.

D is correct answer.
E-Mail settings desc for SSRS App :
“Specify the SMTP mail server to use for Reporting Services.”

I think B is ok.
I found following note in the official lernbooks for 10778A (EXAM 70-466):

“To send subscriptions and data alerts by email, the report server must be configured with the address of an SMTP server. For report servers in native mode, you can configure this setting in Reporting Services Configuration Manager. When using SharePoint Integrated mode, you can configure email settings for the report server service application in SharePoint central Administration.”

But I found nothing about die config-files
