Email System Overview
Site Store Pro has an email system built-into the online store that is completely managed through the web-based admin system.
The email system sends out registration and order confirmation messages, tell-a-friend and password retrieval requests, order shipment confirmations, order download reminders and custom (list) messages.
The email system is not like your desktop or hosting account email where you will receive messages. It is a send-only system. Responses to messages sent from the Site Store Pro email system will have to be replied to by traditional email accounts provided by your ISP or hosting company.
The emails that are sent out by the online store are formatted and managed through the EMAILS section of the web-based admin.
Using the web-based Email Manager, you can send test messages, add/modify message content and create new message profiles.
The following message types are setup for your online store: (Note: The default message profile(s) content should be edited with your company's specific information such as your sales department email in the "From" address field before launching your online store to the public.)
