Karen - Yes, you just install it on a workstation - it has to be installed on each workstation that will be running it. Once you do that, go to the Control Panel on that workstation and open the R:Mail for R:BASE Configuration. You'll need to enter their SMTP server name - the address where they send OUT their emails. To find this address, from the workstation you are working on, you can find this in the user's Outlook screens under Tools / E-Mail Accounts / Change - then look for their Outgoing Mail Account address. I have clients running both 6.5 and 7.5 using R:Mail and it works fine. Feel free to post additional questions - or to contact me privately if you want - I certainly wouldn't want you to look like even a partial idiot!

From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 06, 2006 8:59 AM To: RBASE-L Mailing List Subject: [RBASE-L] - RMail on 6.5 I haven't worked with RMail yet except to program on systems that were already set up. A client of mine who is still on 6.5 Windows wants to buy RMail. RBTI assures me that the current version is backwards compatible. My big concern is that I'll probably have to "install" RMail at their place, and I'm email-illiterate when it comes to email servers, etc. I know they use Outlook as their client, assume that Exchange is their server. Can I install this at a workstation, or do I have to work with their IT to find out where in the heck their server is and install it there (I can't even assume that the server is in the building that I work in)? I'm assuming with their all-Micrsoft setup that RMail is "guaranteed" to work okay? Any experiences you have that would be helpful to me so that I don't look like a total idiot?
