Preferences, Sending section
Configure P3console settings via the File, Preferences menu.
Settings are organised into four sections:
Each section is organised into one or more tabs with some tabs displayed only when running P3console in combination with P3fax.
Sending section, Send tab
Some options described below will only be present when using P3console with P3fax.
When you send an image file from P3console the settings in this section determine how it is delivered.
- Which system should be used to send image files?
- MAPI
Messages will be sent using the default MAPI compliant application, e.g. Microsoft Outlook Express.
- P3fax
P3console will pass messages to P3fax so that it can then send then to either email addresses or fax numbers.
- External Mail Server
Image Files will be sent directly through an SMTP mail server. Enter the name or IP address of the external SMTP mail server and, if appropriate, select the Use authentication option and enter the Username and Password that P3console should use to connect to the SMTP mail server.
- P3fax if available, otherwise MAPI
If P3console can find a P3fax installation on your network then the message will be sent using P3fax. Otherwise the default MAPI compliant application will be used, e.g. Microsoft Outlook Express.
- Email address
Enter the email address you wish to use as the "From" address for email messages sent from P3console.
- Attachment format
If sending messages via MAPI or an external SMTP mail server, select whether the image files should be sent as a .TIF or .PDF attachment.
Sending section, P3fax Integration tab - P3fax only
This dialog will log P3console onto P3fax. P3console must log onto P3fax to send messages through P3fax, create P3fax coversheets or open your P3fax Inbox/Outbox.
- Server
Type the IP address of the PC on which P3fax is installed, a colon and then the port number that the P3fax scheduler is using (the default port number is 7654), e.g. 192.168.0.123:7654.
Alternatively, to cause P3console to search for the P3fax installation, click the Find button.
- User Details
Configure your P3fax user settings.
- Automatically logon on starting the console
Select this option to automatically log onto P3fax when P3console starts.
- Username
Your P3fax username.
- Password
Your P3fax password.
