Re: Savin SPC221SF and scan to email
I know this is 3 weeks old but the reason that you can not send through Comcast e-mail server is because they are securing the server. Look in the customers e-mail settings in Outlook to get what you need. It is under Authentication and not all MFD's are capable of this. POP Server: Requires SSL SMTP Server: Requires POP before SMTP, port 465, and authentication of POP before SMTP or just authentication of just he name and password. Hope this helps.

Re: PaperCut
Old Glory, Not sure how long the MF version has been in play. I've only been back in the industry since January and my new dealership already had some PaperCut installations when I arrived. The software does have the behavior modification pop-ups you are referring to, and I'm told specialized scripts can be easily written to force almost any behavior.

Re: Sales Software
We use Telemagic in our office and it seems to do the trick..They have developed a module specificly for our industry and there are a number of management tools that allow you to set up letters, custom letters, email etc that is automated for customer and lead follow up. You can also share a calendar with the rest of your office. My only beef with this is that there is no way to import / export your calendar into or out of outlook with Telemagic. Graham

Re: How do you manage Letter of Intent dates for your customers?
The only time I send them in is if I am going to switch leasing companies or when it is absolutely necessary. The letter of intent triggers all sorts of monkey business at the leasing companies.....all of which the leasing companies will deny ever happens....even though I've caught them red handed several times.

Re: How do you manage Letter of Intent dates for your customers?
The only time a letter of intent is required is if you are moving to a new leasing company and taking out your competitor. If you are the paper holder then no letter of intent is needed as you can upgrade to return or keep and all the transaction is internal with the leasing company. If a letter is needed make sure it is sent in certified to protect the customer. Leasing companies like to play games after they get these letters. They will call the customer and try to convince them to buy the...

Re: 1515mf
well, you can go to a MS-DOS prompt and type tracert <insert your SMTP server IP address here> This will tell you the name of the server associated with that IP address (assuming you have DNS setup and the server does not block ICMP requests). Technically if the IP address he gave you is actually the correct IP address for his SMTP server, then there is no difference between using the IP and the name (as long as the IP is static).
