How correspondence (also referred to as email archiver) works

Every email sent via the system will automatically bcc the correspondence email and appear within the correspondence tabs within either the client, property or contractor.

However, you can also manually bcc the address via your own emails and the correspondence will automatically appear in the system.

Note: The following subject line examples are examples only - the appropriate REF to use will be based on your sequence formatting settings

By inputting this email address as a Bcc, and having the Property REF somewhere in the subject line, in brackets eg (P-12345), the external email will be sent to this particular property under the correspondence tab.

By inputting this email address as a Bcc, and having the Task REF somewhere in the subject line, in brackets eg (T-12345), the external email will be sent to this particular task under the correspondence tab.

Your property correspondence email is [workspacename]@emailarchiver.onuptick.com


To view correspondence per client

Step 1: Go to the People tab on the navigation menu and select Clients from the drop down menu.

Step 2: Next, click on a specific client.

Step 3: Click on the Correspondence tab to view all correspondence related to the client selected.

To view correspondence per property

The correspondence page will display all e-mails exchanged concerning the property, in open view. This saves you from having to search, click through and open up emails to retrieve information.

Step 4: From here you can also click Open mail window which will allow you to send an email via your own email portal (Automatically includes a bcc of the correspondence email).

Note: Follow the same steps but instead of on a property, on a task, to see task dispatches and correspondence related to a particular task. This can assist in finding when emails were sent, to who, and what was sent. You can see exactly what was sent by clicking on the 'Attachments:' on the correspondence.

Wanting to update your email templates? Read this article for more:


Tagging correspondence

You can create tags to organise your correspondence tracking by typing a name and clicking Create. These tags will appear in all correspondence tabs once created.

Attachment sizes

Attachments below 10MB in file size will be attached to the email itself. If the attachment is above this size limit then a public link will be included to be able to access and download the file


Bounced emails

When an email bounces, you'll receive a notification of what has bounced to the email listed in your business settings. The error message will look like this:

An email sent from Uptick bounced! A bounce means the email left Uptick correctly,
but failed to be accepted by the recipient for a reason outlined below.

Bounce info:

Bounce Reason: Permanent/General: The email service received a general hard bounce.
If you receive this type of bounce, you should remove the recipient's email address
from your mailing list.

please contact support and include this email.

Uptick Team

Under the heading that reads Bounce Info, the message includes the email address of the recipient and a Bounce Reason explaining why the email bounced. The Bounce Reason has the following structure:

Bounce Reason: Bounce Type/Bounce Subtype: Error details

Bounced messages are categorised by bounce type and subtype. In the example error message above the Type is Permanent and the SubType is General. See the table below for an explanation of the different bounce types/subtypes and what they mean.

Note:

If you send an email to a recipient who has an active automatic response rule (such as an "out of the office" message), you might receive this type of notification.

The recipient's email provider sent a bounce message because the recipient's inbox was full. You might be able to send to the same recipient in the future when the mailbox is no longer full.

MessageTooLarge

The recipient's email provider sent a bounce message because message you sent was too large. You might be able to send a message to the same recipient if you reduce the size of the message.

Transient

ContentRejected

The recipient's email provider sent a bounce message because the message you sent contains content that the provider doesn't allow. You might be able to send a message to the same recipient if you change the content of the message.

Transient

AttachmentRejected

The recipient's email provider sent a bounce message because the message contained an unacceptable attachment. For example, some email providers may reject messages with attachments of a certain file type, or messages with very large attachments. You might be able to send a message to the same recipient if you remove or change the content of the attachment.
