Delivery methods are the method by which the document is delivered to the recipient. Delivery methods for a standard recipient include email, fax, file copy, FTP and print. Delivery methods for a dynamic recipient include email, fax and print.
In addition, you can configure default delivery methods that will be utilized if a recipient is not located for a specific document.
To send email to a standard recipient or as a default delivery method for a routing list, Output Manager must have specific information about the email output.
On the General screen, enter the email address or addresses that will be included in all email sent for this recipient.
