Email Options #
StudioPlus Mail – If you have enabled the StudioPlus Mail service for your company, the option will automatically be selected here. You can enter a different display name and email address for this workstation if desired.
SMTP – If
you want the software to send email directly through your SMTP server
and not use an intermediary email program such as Outlook, you can use
the SMTP option. This option sends email more quickly. The software logs each sent email in the client’s Status
Notes and saves a copy on their Communication tab. However, these
emails do not get logged in your Sent
Items folder in your email application.
Make sure you have the exact name of the SMTP server (for outgoing email). The software also supports SSL security and another SMTP port if it is needed.
The SMTP settings are supplied by your Internet (email) provider.
MAPI – Select
this option if you use a MAPI-compliant email application other than Outlook,
such as Outlook Express or Winmail. The software logs each sent
email in the client’s Status Notes and the email will appear
in your email application’s Sent Items
folder if you have it set up to do that.
Microsoft Outlook – If you want to use Microsoft Outlook to send email, select this option. The software logs each sent email in the client’s Status
Notes and the email will appear
in Outlook’s Sent Items
folder (if that option has not been turned off in Outlook). You may receive
an Outlook warning message with each email that is sent. The message is
an Outlook virus safeguard.
