| Contact Wolf includes a powerful
"built-in" email engine that is capable of bulk emailing
thousands of recipients. The Email Engine must be
configured to use your email server to be utilized.
TIP: If you would
prefer simply using your computers email client for
sending email from Contact Wolf you can enable the client
option by selecting:
Select : Preferences ->Email options -> Send
email from Contact Wolf using -> This computers email
client
Note: You can email multiple recipients using the email
client option but all the addresses of the recipients will
be viewable by each recipient since the email addresses
will be added to the cc box in your computers email
client. There may be a limit on the number of recipient
email addresses that can be added using the client option.
The Contact Wolf email engine does not have any
limitations and the recipient addresses will not be
viewable by each recipient.
To enable the Contact Wolf Email Engine:
Select : Preferences ->Email options -> Send
email from Contact Wolf using -> Contact Wolf Email Engine
To configure the Contact Wolf email engine:
Select : Preferences ->Email options ->
Configure-> configure Contact Wolf Email Engine
1) Enter your Outgoing Email Server Address:
This is usually an SMTP address such as
smtp.myemailserver.com You may need to contact your
ISP to determine your outgoing server address. If you have
a functional email client on your computer you can usually
find the smtp address in the email clients options.
2) Enter the Sender Email Address (usually your reply
email address)
3) If your server requires authentication (a username
and password) click on the Server Requires Authentication
option and place a check mark in the box so its selected.
4) Enter your email servers UserName and Password (if
it requires authentication)
5) Click on the TEST EMAIL button to send a test email
to yourself. You will see a popup message that says "Message
sent successfully" if you have the server information
entered correctly. If you have the Contact Wolf Email
Engine option enabled all email will now be sent from
Contact Wolf using its built-in email engine.
TIP: If the
Test Email button fails you will see a popup message that
the error encountered has been stored in a file named
errors.xml You may need to search your
computer to find the errors.xml file location since it can
be different depending on the Operating System and install
location selected. The file can be opened with NotePad or
a browser and it indicate what problem occurred when it
tried to send email.
