Mail Sources
You can use external mail sources to save, manage, and share important email, and to make sure that important information does not get lost in email boxes. For example, you can set a designated archive account to import all email to the vault and to then delete the messages from the mail server. In the vault, you can manage the imported messages with the M-Files features. Example use cases include managing orders or archiving sent offers. You can use the Cc and Bcc fields to save sent email to the vault as well, for example proposals and order confirmations. To avoid junk mail, you can set the email account to accept email only from users in your organization.
Warning: A large number of connections to external sources with short synchronization
intervals can cause performance and other issues. One solution is to set a limit for simultaneous mail
source updates. To do this, configure the setting Maximum Number of Simultaneous
Updates in the section of Advanced Vault Settings.
