Tip: When emailing statements from Tabs3 Billing via Microsoft Outlook, sent emails will be retained in the active Outlook profile's Sent Items folder. However, if multiple people will be emailing statements, the sent emails will be in each of these senders' Sent Items folders, as opposed to being in a single consolidated folder. For that reason, you may want to consider including the firm's address as a Bcc Recipient for each email template.
When emailing statements from Tabs3 Billing via SMTP, a copy of the email message is not retained in the sender's Sent Items folder.
