Email Window for Outgoing Messages

You use this Email window to either respond to an ACD-routed email message or start an email interaction on behalf of a workgroup.

Note: The Email window used to view an ACD-routed email message provides some different tools and options. See also Email Window for Incoming Messages.

1	Menus	Use these menus to perform various actions during or after composing an email reply.
2	Toolbar	The toolbar contains buttons for most of the functions for managing an email reply. Tip: Keyboard shortcuts are also available for these functions and are listed on the View menu. Keyboard shortcuts are available many of the actions on the other menus. You also control whether the toolbar is displayed and which buttons appear. For more information, see Configure Email Windows.
3	From To, Cc, Bcc Subject Attached	This area contains the standard email message address fields. The To field defaults to the sender of the original email message. Click the To button to add additional addresses. Note: Responses to messages sent with an alternate "Reply-To" address are delivered to that address. If you selected Reply All, replies are delivered to the "Reply-To" address and all of the original recipients, but not to the sender’s original address. Subject defaults to the subject of the original email message. Note: Subject is limited to 1024 characters in the CIC client. However, many email clients have much smaller limits so the recipient may see a truncated subject line. The Attached box displays the names of attached files. The Attached button enables you to attach additional files. Note: The Attached box and Attached button appear in the Email window only after you use File > Insert Attachment to attach at least one file.
4	Formatting toolbar	Note: There are two versions of the editing toolbar: the MSHTML and Telerik toolbars. Your CIC administrator determines which version is available to you. For a description of these toolbars, see Reply to an HTML Email Message. The text formatting toolbar appears in the E-mail Reply window under certain conditions: If the original ACD-routed email message is formatted using HTML, you have the option of using text formatting tools in your email reply. For a description of the available tools, see Reply to an HTML Email Message. If you are creating an email message to send on behalf of a workgroup, the text formatting tools are always available to you. If the original email message was sent in plain text (no formatting), the Email Reply window does not include a text formatting bar. Your email reply is sent in plain text.
