How can I define to which email address Aloaha delivers the signed document?

There are two possibilities.

1. You can use the Aloaha embedded commands such as emailto. Aloaha will read commands from the document itself. The command emailto defines the recipient(s)

2. You can create subdirectories in your configured inputfolder. If the name of the subdirectory is an email address Aloaha will use that as emailto. Please restart the Multisignator after creating new subdirectories.

A combination of 1 and 2 is possible. For example you can use the subdirectory functionality to define an email to which is always used. Additional recipients are then defined via 1 (embedded commands)

Is it possible to sign emails?

With the Aloaha Multisignator it is possible to sign PDF documents embedded in an email.
If you drop .eml files in one of the configured input folders Aloaha will digitally sign all PDF documents embedded in that eml file.

It is also possible to use the inbuilt POP3 downloader to download emails from an external POP3 mailbox and drop them into the dropfolder.

Can Aloaha send out eml files by SMTP?

Yes, if mailing is enabled Aloaha will automatically send out the email via the configured SMTP Server.

In case the input directory has the form of an email address Aloaha will automatically rewrite the recipient address so that the recipient address matches the folder name.

Should the email delivery via SMTP fail Aloaha will submit the email to the local IIS directory. In case even this fails the eml.file will be saved in the define failed diretory.

Can I load different profiles?

Yes, per default Aloaha saves the settings in the file MultiSignator.ini. Per commandline you can open any other configuration file.

For example: AloahaMultiSignator.exe AlternativeSettings.ini

Can I configure different certificates per dropfolder?

Yes, after you configured your folder just right click on them and choose settings such as POP3, Signature, etc.

How do I configure the POP3 downloader?

The POP3 downloader will be configured per hotfolder. That means you need to right click on the configured hotfolder and choose POP3 to configure the POP3 downloader for that folder.

I do not understand the options of the POP3 downloader dialog.

POP3Frequency (seconds) defines how often the POP3 Module will be called.

Max. POP3 Processes will define how many POP3 Processes will be launched.

POP3Frequency defines how frequent a POP3 Server is allowed to be contacted.

Max Downloads defines how many emails will be downloaded from the mailbox.

Mail Recipient defines the target address. To this recipient the documents will be mailed.

If CC Sender is activated every email will be cc'ed to the original sender.

I configured the POP3 downloader but no emails will be downloaded.

To save performance Aloaha will call the POP3 Module ONLY if all drop folder are empty.

How can I make sure that no emails will be lost in case I have problems with my network connectivity

Per default Aloaha delivers the email per SMTP. Should that fail due to network problems Aloaha will try to submit the mails to the local IIS pickup directory. As soon the network is back the IIS will deliver the mails. For this reason it is suggested (but not required) to operate Aloaha on a machine with a correctly configured IIS SMTP Server.

How can I find out why Aloaha cannot download mails from my mailbox?

Aloaha will write the last problem to the file Multisignator.ini.

Is it possible to upload the signed documents to a web based document library?

Yes, just configure the URL lf the library as targetfolder. Aloaha will automatically upload the signed documents.

Is it possible to sign documents directly at the command prompt?

Yes, but you would need the Aloaha Commandline Signer (CLS). Please have a look at http://www.aloaha.com/software-development/aloaha-commandline-signer-cls.php
