Manage mailboxes and mailbox folders

Use the Mailbox functionality to view the contents of a specified mailbox on the Fiery Server and retrieve the file.

By default, when you open Fiery Remote Scan, the From Mailbox tab is selected.

Access a mailbox

To access a mailbox, you enter the user name and password for that mailbox.

The Fiery Server administrator defines scan mailbox privileges in the Users and Groups section of Configure. The mailbox name is always the same as the user name. For information about Users and Groups, see Configure help in Command WorkStation help.

  1. Click Change Mailbox.
  2. In the Login dialog box, type the user name and password.
  3. Click Login.
  4. Select Keep me logged in if you want to automatically login to the mailbox the next time you connect. If you selected automatic login for a mailbox, you must log out to log in to a different mailbox. All the scan files in the mailbox are listed.
  5. Select the desired scan file
  6. Do one of the following:
    • If you started from the Fiery Remote Scan application, click Save As to open the Save As dialog and specify the file name, file format, and location for saving the scan file.
    • If you started from the Fiery Remote Scan TWAIN plug-in, click Acquire to open the scan file in the host application for the Fiery Remote Scan TWAIN plug-in.
  7. Click Delete to delete the selected scan file in the mailbox. Delete is not available for the Fiery Remote Scan TWAIN plug-in.
  8. Click Close

Map a mailbox to a folder on the network

Fiery Remote Scan can map your mailbox to a specified folder on your computer or on a remote server. Any scans you send to the mailbox are also sent to the designated folder for retrieval.

  1. Log in to a mailbox.
  2. Click the Map mailbox to folder link in the Remote Scan window.
  3. In the Map mailbox to folder dialog box, select Enable mailbox to folder mapping.
  4. Browse to the location of the folder you want to map to.
  5. Click OK.
Note: If you see a message that Remote Scan cannot access the destination folder or connect to the mailbox, check your network connection and try again.

Open mapped folders

When folder mapping has been enabled, you can open a mapped folder from the Menu on a Mac OS computer, or from the Taskbar on a Windows computer. These menus display the folders that have already been configured.

Click the folder icon to open it in the Finder on Mac OS or Windows Explorer on Windows.
