Default Global Settings

Select File > Auto Send Options > General  to open the following global options.  These options allow the user to customize the content of the documents. Options to receive summaries or copies or to prompt the system to generate log files are configured within this dialog.

Complete the following E-mail Settings:

  1. The Export Folder must be mapped to a valid computer path. This setting will default to %Temp%\AutoSend.  %Temp% identifies the current users temporary folder.  This directory will contain document copies and log files. Review the Test Mode section for more details on the log files.

  2. The Mail Server setting must reflect the network address or server name of the network E-mail server. Use the SMTP address when using the Microsoft Exchange Server.

  3. The From Address should contain a valid e-mail address that will receive responses from the Auto Send e-mail message. This setting is used only when e-mail is using the SMTP protocol. Note that any E-mails that fail to deliver will be returned to the From Address. The From Address is required for SMTP e-mail send processes. Using an e-mail alias is recommended rather than using a specific person's e-mail address.

  4. The SMTP Port should be set per e-mail service providers specifications.
