Sending emails with the email connector
Prerequisites
-
The email connector has been set up.
After the email connector is set up, it provides you with information about the email addresses to which your emails from the email client or CMS system may be sent (if necessary, consult your Inxmail Professional administrator).
-
The following agents are displayed on the tab of the mailing list (Adding/deleting additional agents to/from mailing lists):
-
Email connector agent -
Mailings agent
-
Step by step
- Create an email in your email client or CMS system.
-
From there, send your email to the email address of the corresponding Inxmail Professional POP3 account (this email address will be provided by your administrator).
The email connector automatically forwards the email as a mailing (to the recipients on the mailing list) using the
Mailings agent.If your administrator has defined a header or footer as part of the setup of the email connector, this is integrated before the mailing is forwarded on.
The email connector also forwards recipients' replies to your sent mail depending on its settings. The replies are either sent directly to your sender address or forwarded to a sender address specified for the mailing list.
The mailing sent via the email connector is displayed on the tab of the mailing list >
Mailings agent.A mailing sent via the email connector is always displayed automatically in the corresponding mailing table. The mailing can be recognised by its designation in the Name column: ‘Email connector <Sender address of the original mailing>’.
You can view reports on these mailings in the
Reports agent.
- You have sent an email as a mailing using the email connector.
