Understanding Save Email Preferences
In the aMail panel, you can choose how emails and attachments are saved:
Save Email with Attachments
Saves the email and all attachments in the selected folder. The email is stored as the primary file in Asite with attachments linked as secondary files.
Optional: Save attachment as separate file: store the email and each attachment as individual files instead of grouped.
Save Email Without Attachments
Saves only the email without any attachments.
Save Attachments Only
Saves only the attachments without the email.
If there multiple attachments, they are saved as a zip file named after the email subject.
Optional: Save attachment as separate file: saves each attachment individually.
Settings: Select Location
After selecting your email preference, click Choose Location to select where the email will be saved.
Use the drop-down to pick from your most recently used or favourite folders in Asite. By default, the top 10 folders from these lists are shown.
NOTE: To view all projects in Asite, open the drop-down menu in aMail and select All.
Create a Folder on the Asite via MS Outlook Using aMail
While saving an email to Asite using aMail in MS Outlook, click the plus + icon on the right side of the folder panel to create a new folder or subfolder directly on the Asite platform.
