-
Check your email to verify that the message sent.
If the message sent, your email relay is set up properly.
-
If the test email does not come through to
your inbox, go to Viewpoint
Administration > Programs > VA Message
Archive.
The grid displays all send attempts.
-
View the failure message to figure out why the test email did not send.
The error messages are typically much longer than what you see in the
grid, so be sure to look at the full message.
Send As errors are the most common errors. These occur when your email service is not properly configured. Any email address that shows as a from account must grant permission to your company email account to send emails on behalf of the company account.
