Send mails
From Wikipedia
With the send-form (or the link 'create' at the list view) you can mail quick and simple to members of the group, to external contacts, or to any other address.
With the select box ‚Sender‘ you can choose an identity, which you have already created at the options. This refers only to a fully featured mail client setting. An identity consists of a self chosen sender and a signature, which will be the close up tat the of an email.
To the next line, please entitle the email with a ‚subject‘. The text field underneath is for the context, with no limitation to the length of the text.
Underneath the text field you have a select box, for the fields for the Direct Mailing option, please refer the later coming chapter about Direct Mailing.
With the receive confirmation you will receive a message if the one you wrote an email at least have opened the email. Never the less the receiver has to have to permit such emails or even has to have activated this feature automatically o his system.
In the field 'additional receiver‘ you can set any kind of email address. The attribute 'additional' should only point out, that you can write this email also to other, than already selected colleagues or contacts of the contact list.
In the fields 'Cc' and 'Bcc' you can add additional email addresses , which will be added to the category of this mail. (Addresses with the item 'Bcc' will receive the mail, but the actual receiver is not aware of that.)
group members or external contacts, if the user and the external contacts does have email addresses in their databases, their name appear in the list. To add an entry, just select it. And you can select user profiles or contact profiles, too.
- Tip: The selection box at the right side list all group members. To select more than one press the 'Ctrl'-key while selecting the names with the cursor. With the pressed 'Shift'-key you can mark all between start- and end name of a column. Alternatively or additionally you can select single members of the contact list.
With the last box you can select to attach any kind of files to the email, aka. Attachments. Set a path or use the 'search'-button for the fileselection.
With 'go' (or the return-button) you get the email(s) on the way, and will be sent for the server right away.
Checkbox: 'sent mails as singles'. The message will be sent to every receiver as a single if there is only one receiver selected. If not one copy will be received from every receiver.
- Attention: PHProjekt uses the function mail() an internal function of PHP to email. This means PHProjekt receives no error message if the mails have been sent through the server or not. The message 'mails sent successful' replys only the successful hand over of the mails to the system installed mail program, by PHP. If the mail program on your server if configured correct, this cannot be verified.
