Email settings for sending emails
Location in standard build: Admin menu > 3rd Party Software > Email Setup
There are various places in Charitylog where email can be used - for example, on the Details Screen, email addresses can display an "envelope" icon which will create an email to the relevant person. The "Email Settings for Charitylog" page controls various options for the way that this process happens.

Settings
Use email service with Charitylog
Simple yes/no option. Setting to "No" will mean that the envelope icon does not display on Details Screens, for example.
Sending email address for organisation
This is not editable here - it is copied over from the "Email Address (Main)" field on the System Details page.
Use external email client (e.g. Outlook)
Choose whether to generate the email within Charitylog (either using Charitylog's SMTP server or your own SMTP server), or have the system create mailto links to open your own email program.
This text will appear at the bottom of emails generated by the system. The Companies Act 2006 requires all of your business emails to include the following details if you are a Ltd, plc or LLP:
- Company's registered name
- Company registration number
- Place of registration (e.g. Scotland or England & Wales)
- Your registered office address
Use SMTP Servers
Choose whether to use Charitylog's SMTP server, or enter details for your own SMTP server. If you choose the latter, the section below will expand to let you enter all the relevant details.
