In General

You will find a detailed description of how to setup the email interface in timeSensor LEGAL in the FAQ entry B7. The following entry covers the technical setup of the interface.

You will need to setup a separate, dedicated, email inbox ("email account") in order for timeSensor LEGAL to send and receive emails. The email account can be setup on the law firm's server or somewhere else. For privacy reasons, we do not recommend the use of Gmail accounts. For the purpose of this FAQ, we will show how to setup a GMX account.

You may not use the dedicated account for any other purpose than that of timeSensor LEGAL. Choose a name that is not too easy to remember, such as:

• dms@myfirm.com
• timesensor@myfirm.com
• dms_ myfirm@gmx.de
