The following are some email software applications that are MAPI compliant: Microsoft Outlook (97 and 98), Netscape Messenger (Version 4), Outlook Express (Version 4 and later), Qualcomm's Eudora (all versions), Pegasus Mail (Version 3) and Microsoft Exchange. If your email software isn't listed here and you wish to email from MYOB AccountEdge, contact the publishers of your email software to obtain more information about its MAPI compliance. |
You can access the email feature by clicking the Send To button in the Sales, Purchases, Index to Reports and Screen Reports windows. All sales --Quotes, Orders, Invoices and all purchases -- Quotes, Orders and Bills can be emailed. You can also send an email message -- one that doesn't contain a form or report -- using the Card Information window.
| Note: Forms and reports are saved as PDF files When a form or report is saved using the email feature, it's saved as a PDF (Portable Document Format) file. The contact who receives the email must have software that is capable of opening a PDF file. To view a file in PDF format, you need Adobe Acrobat Reader, a free application distributed by Adobe Systems -- www.adobe.com. |
