Send Email Messages with Attachments
It is easy to use Relevant Tools to send email messages with attachments. From your own email program you can create the message just as you normally would. Attach your file to your message. The email address that you send it to will be message@relevanttools.com. The subject will be your userid that you use to login followed by a colon followed by the real suject of your email.
You will get an email response back from Relevant Tools letting you know that your message has been installed and is ready for you to edit or send.
You can then login to your Relevant Tools account. Click on Messages and select the message that was just installed to edit it. Often you will want to change the from email address so that instead of coming from your personal email address the message will come from your company email address.
Now you are ready to send the message out in a mailing to your database or use it as an auto responder email message that people receive when they complete a web form.
There is one warning for attachments - they can't be too big. No one likes to receive huge attachments that take too long to download. Relevant Tools will check the size of your message with the attachment when you send it and if it is too large you will not be able to send it. If you run into this situation just ask us about file upload as then you can upload the file and just include a link to to file instead of sending it as an attachment.
