Email Distribution

In some cases you might like to write one email to multiple logins.

Purpose

Imagine you have many logins that point to the same folder. An example would for instance be a digital dailies situation. You like to share sensitive assets with a fixed number of collaborators.

You can do this by setting up one login for each person. The log files and client pages will then uniquely identify the person that accesses the content.

Setup

In order for email distribution to work you have to assign an email address as the recipient. This is not to be confused with the admin / sender that is configured for each login.

You can assign the recipient either via the login name or if you like to use that for other purposes via the internal login note

In both cases you need to enter the email address only in its simple form (like [email protected]) No other information can be part of either the login name or the internal note.

Usage

You find the email distribution function either on the login screen after you selected one or more logins, or if you have more than two logins pointing to a folder it is also reachable via the

 mail etc.

screen. In the later case you also have to select the logins you like to send the distribution for.

The actual email flow is similar to that of the normal email function. Some more keywords will still appear in their IDX... form since INTERDUBS will only be able to fill them out when it creates the individual emails.

The system will create separate emails for each login in the email distribution list and will log access etc accordingly.


Mail with link to file or folder

If you select the email email distribution feature while being on a file or folder page then you will a second option titled

 link to file / folder

This button will set the direct link in the email to the folder / file that you have chosen instead of having it go to the login as with the


 link to login


option.
