Setting Up Information for Email
Customers can submit email messages by completing a form in the Contact Us view. The contents of the form are converted into an email message and routed to an email address in your email application. You must enable the Communications Management component group to process inbound email. This component group is started with the Siebel Server process to process inbound email. You can verify a successful email submission in Siebel Call Center by checking the logged event for this task in the Administration - Server Management screen. For more information, see Siebel CTI Administration Guide. Siebel Communications Server processes inbound and outbound communication messages for the Siebel application. Siebel eService uses Siebel Communications Server to process the inbound structured email forms that customers submit. For more information, see Siebel CTI Administration Guide.
