Workstation Preferences - Email

 

SMTP -  If you want to have Spectra 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 allows you to send email more quickly, Spectra logs each sent email in the client's Status Notes and saves a copy on the 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). Spectra also supports SSL security and another SMTP port if it is needed. The SMTP settings are from 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. Spectra will then use the email settings on this workstation’s Control Panel. Spectra logs each sent email in the client's Status Notes and the email will appear in your email’s Sent Items folder if the application is set to do that.

Microsoft Outlook - If you want to use Microsoft Outlook to send email, select this option. Spectra logs each sent email in the client's Status Notes and the email will appear in your email’s Sent Items folder if you have not turned off that option in Outlook. You may receive an Outlook warning message with each email that is sent. The message is an Outlook virus safeguard.
