Set up
Set up "Email Settings" (for Microsoft) via Gear Wheel > Settings > Emails. It will provide an ability to keep track of emails sent and receive client's responses directly into your inbox.
Notes:
- All emails to your clients are sending from Microsoft mailbox and can be seen in the "Sent items" folder.
- Since the Microsoft is external SMTP provider, we cannot track the delivery status of every email. But, if something would go wrong - then you (user) would get the failure notification to your Microsoft mailbox.
FAQ
Q: Client's can't receive the copy of their signed tax forms.

Troubleshooting
Error: When using smtp settings the system tries to send test email to check the settings are correct. If a user receives this error (below) - it means the credentials provided from their SMTP provider are invalid.
- Please check SMTP host.. Different services are unable to connect to it.Please let your IT person check that.
- Try to change the SMTP port from 587 to 465 or to 25, in some cases this is the reason.
- Please pay attention to the password which is case sensitive, for instance PassWord and passwoRD are different."
