Send mail using

Enables you to select a method for sending emails.

  • Internal SMTPSage CRM acts as the SMTP client to the Outgoing mail server. You must specify the Outgoing mail server IP address and SMTP port. A limitation of this option is that the email is always recorded as a sent communication even in cases when the email has not been dispatched by the mail client. To overcome this, users can cc themselves when emailing companies and contacts so they can cross-reference communications with emails that have arrived in their mailbox.
  • CDONTS/CDOSYS: You must specify the Outgoing mail server IP address and SMTP port, and set the CDOSYS options in IIS. You can access copies of sent emails listed in C:\Inetpub\mailroot\badmail to check for problems with email delivery.
In Windows terminology CDONTS is now called CDOSYS. The functionality is the same from the user’s perspective.

Send email as HTML

Set to Yes to send HTML emails.
