Email participation |
With WebBoard’s mailing list capabilities,
registered users can participate in conferences via email. After subscribing
to conference mailing lists, a user receives all messages posted to
the conference and responds or posts new topics, all via email. For
users who prefer to participate through a browser but want to know
about new messages without logging on, WebBoard can send email notification
of conferences with new messages once a day. The built-in SMTP mail
server handles the incoming mail for WebBoard’s mailing list
feature. It prevents unregistered or unauthorized users from posting
messages by email and bounces the messages back to the sender (if
desired). WebBoard requires an external SMTP server for handling outgoing
mail.

Email attachment hot link |
WebBoard provided a quick and easy
way to access email attachments without overloading local hard drives.
Attachments now appear as a hot link back to the WebBoard server.

Message search feature |
WebBoard includes a search engine for
finding specific text in message topics and message bodies, or finding
messages by a specific author. Searches can be limited by conference
or date, or sorted in a variety of ways including by weight. Full-text
searches make finding specific information even faster.
