Installation
Notes for Vista and later versions of WindowsWhen installing eBirdMail on a Windows Vista or later OS, DO NOT install into the ‘c:\program files’ folder. Install instead in a folder like ‘C:\Applications\eBirdMail’. By default Vista and later versions do not allow programs installed in the ‘C:\Program Files’ folder to save data anywhere under that folder, which is what eBirdMail needs to be able to do.
Sampe ConfigurationeBirdMail includes a sample configuration that demonstrates a basic email setup, with data from a `sample.csv’ file and a `sampleMonthly.html’ template located in the Docs folder of your installation directory. |
