Internal Email Escalation System

Internal E-mail / Escaltion System

The internal e-mail system provides an e-mail system for your users that can both send mail via MS Outlook, as well as import sent or received mail in MS Outlook.  This e-mail is completely self-sufficient and will provide an e-mail style communication tool, even when external e-mail has not been set up.

With our Internal Email module you can

Send e-mail via MS Outlook to other Internet Addresses. When sent from the Contact Manager module, there is a record of the e-mail to a customer or vendor that other users may need to know about when dealing with that particular company.

Create E-mail groups for quick addressing to multiple persons.
