Mail Queue

The paragraph describes the core features of the mail queue. While the system does not use an integrated mail server the mails created within the system can be managed in the 'Mailqueue'. It offers the option to delete, block and resend single or batch processed mails as well as edit single mails with recipients as well as CC and BCC recipients. Details on how to configure a mail server to be used by the system will be addressed in the paragraph Tenant.
