This section controls whether or not PowerHome will process control Email with embedded Send Keys, Formulas, or Macros.   PowerHome has the ability to retrieve Email at intervals you specify and process any that are intended to control the system.

Check this box to enable this feature.  You will still have to program PowerHome to periodically check the email either through the macro command Process Email or the formula function ph_processemail.

If you’ve enabled the Control via Email option, you can restrict processing of control Email to only the addresses that you specify.  If you choose this option, enter the Email addresses you will process Email from in the Restricted Email Control Addresses field..

Enter as many email addresses as you like that you will accept Control Email from.  Separate multiple email addresses with a , (comma).

Once you’ve processed a Control Email, you can have the system delete it.

If your MAPI client requires a logon then use this field and the password field to enter your credentials.

Enter the password for your default MAPI client if one is required.

When sending control email, you don’t want extra characters within the body of the email to be interpreted as control characters.  Many free email accounts or email sent via cellphones add additional text to the email body.  Use this field to enter a string of characters that you will add to your control email to signify the end of the control email body.

PowerHome uses MAPI for its Email processing and you must have a MAPI compliant Email client properly setup.  Any Email that is not intended for PowerHome will be retrieved but left unaltered in the inbox of your MAPI compliant client.
