InMail-Email Notification
Description
Email Notification automatically sends an email notification when a Subscriber Mailbox receives a new
message. The email can optionally include the recorded message as a .wav file attachment. To hear
the message, the email recipient double-clicks the .wav attachment to have the message play in their
wav player (such as Windows Media Player).
Email Notification uses SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) to deliver messages to the recipient’s
email account. If the message recipient has a mobile telephone service provider with an SMS (Short
Message Service) portal, they can optionally choose to have text messages delivered right to their cell
phone. In either case, Email Notification does not provide synchronization – the email account and the
voice mailbox operate independently. For example, deleting the voice mail message does not
automatically delete the email and visa-versa.
If Email Notification tries to deliver an email and it doesn’t go through because of a connection
problem (i.e., no connection or a dropped connection), it will retry every 15 minutes for 24 hours. If the
email still can’t go through, Email Notification cancels the delivery. Email deliveries that fail because
authentication fails or the encryption mode is incorrect are immediately cancelled.
Collecting the Email Notification Data
In order for the installation site’s InMail to send email notifications, it must have a valid SMTP email
account assigned. To save time during programming, use the following table to help collect the
system’s email account information. The email account provider can supply this information. See
Programming in this feature for more.
