You add email accounts to each of your locations. When customers email one of the connected accounts, their message is autoamtically added to the relevant customer account in Nexudus.
To connect an email account you need to add the settings for incoming (used to receive emails) and outgoing (used to send emails) servers. We've added the server details of some of the most popular email providers at the end of this article for easy reference.
Check out our tutorials on Adding Gmail Accounts and Adding Office365 Accounts.
Most email providers including Google and Outlook use this protocol.
Once you've added an email account to Nexudus, we will scan that account's inbox every 15 minutes for new messages. If any of the inbox messages includes an email address that matches a customer in your account, the message is automatically copied to the relevant customer account on the Admin Panel.
