Setting up Email

IMS uses either your default email client or you may use the following steps:

The email configuration settings are stored in the file:

"sscViewModule.exe.config". It is in the application directory:

(C:\Program Files\Imminent Technologies, Inc\IMS 4 View Module). The email settings are located about halfway down the page.
