Email Access

This module is used to design an interface to display a user's email. It has been depreciated in favor of Admin > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. It generates a CpScript that can be placed in any module and attribute that supports scripting. Be sure to use your mouse to hover over the names of the attributes because many of the more confusing attributes are described using tool tips. This script is designed to retrieve the user's credentials from their account using UserInfo scripts, therefore, it should be placed on private pages to ensure that the user has been authenticated.

The Details tab describes how the users account will be accessed. You may type a username and password into the provided attributes, but it is recommened that you use UserInfo scripts to access this information. For instance, if you are using the Active Directory Global Login with Outlook Web Access you can use the [cp:literal:scripting key='UserInfo' attributesystemname='OwaUsername' /] and [cp:literal:scripting key='UserInfo' attributesystemname='OwaPassword' /] CpScripts which are automatically populated by the login. Since the OwaPassword is automatically encrypted by the system you should set the IsEncrypted attribute to "Yes".

The Formatting tab is in charge of designing your email interface.  In this case we use Template Content attribute both the header and footer content included the item content using the [cp:literal:placeholders key='ItemContent' /] script. If you are using the Active Directory Global Login with Outlook Web Access you can also link the Inbox text to "/Accounts/Owa.aspx" to automatically link the interface to Outlook.
