How it integrates with Outlook.

Company mailbox

The connected Outlook mailbox is the From address for case email. This is separate from Outlook Calendar.

Send and reply

PaperThread can send a case email and reply on that thread from the connected mailbox.

Recent inbox

Recent inbox messages can be read so a reply can join the case. That return is not the whole mailbox.

Not a people record

Outlook here is mailbox data. PaperThread does not treat it as an HRIS employee record.

How PaperThread puts that
context to work.

Read context

Read recent inbox messages on the connected Outlook mailbox when a case needs the reply.

Prepare actions

Prepare the case email or reply before it is sent.

Route work

Send the email to the person the case is waiting on.

Update supported items

Send a case email or a reply only where the mailbox permits it. PaperThread does not delete Outlook messages.

Hand off to a person

Assign a person when the Outlook mailbox cannot finish the email.

Common questions, clear answers.
