Description

Use ‘Access rights’ agent

Our recommendation: If you assign a user the ‘Use access rights’ right, you should always assign the same user the ‘Also has access to access-restricted mailing lists’ right at the same time. Otherwise, the user may exclude themselves from a mailing list by activating the ‘Access rights’ agent.

Users require this right in order to see and use the Access rights agent.

The Access rights agent is available in three Inxmail Professional application areas.

  • (Global settings) main tab in the Global settings section
  • Mailing lists
  • (Global settings) main tab in the Administration section

    (only for Inxmail employees and licence customers)

Detailed information about the Access rights agent can be found in the section Access rights agent.

Also has access to access-restricted mailing lists

If this right is set, the respective user has access to all mailing lists created in Inxmail Professional and their objects.

Background: Usually, access to a mailing list is specified via the Access rights agent within the specific mailing list and not via user rights.

If the ‘Access to all mailing lists’ right is set, the respective user also has access to the mailing lists for which they have not been granted access in the Access rights agent within the specific mailing list.

Detailed information about the Access rights agent can be found in the section Access rights agent.

Instructions on assigning access rights for individual mailing lists can be found in the section Setting up access rights for mailing lists.

Also has access to ‘Global settings’ if they are access-restricted

If this right is set, the user has access to the (Global settings

) main tab.

Background: Usually, access to the

(Global settings) main tab is not granted via user rights but via the Access rights agent on the (Global settings) main tab in the Global settings section.

If the ‘Access to Global settings’ right is set, the respective user also has access to the (Global settings) main tab when they have not been granted access via the Access rights agent on the (Global settings) main tab in the Global settings section.

Detailed information about the Access rights agent can be found in the section Access rights agent.
