Configuring Email
The Email configuration settings are located on the Preferences tab, which can be easily accessed by clicking the 'Configure Email' button on the Email tab described above.



Here your specific email host settings can be configured so e-Laps can remotely log in and send emails using your email account.

Please Note
Email host settings will depend upon which email host you use - please refer to your specific email host for the correct settings.

After entering valid email host settings, click the 'Test Send' button to ensure e-Laps is able to send email.

A copy of each email will be sent to the CC Address if one is entered.

Individual Entrant Email configuration
In order for entrants to receive emails from e-Laps, they need to have an email address entered, and the 'Receive' drop down set to 'Yes'. These settings are configured on the People page (3rd Menu from the top).
