Symprex Email Signature Manager, v10.0.0 |
Upgrading from v5.x and v6.x |
There are a number of key changes between v5.x/v6.x and v10.x, as follows:
•The Deployment Tool (sign.exe) has been replaced by a new Email Signature Manager Agent that runs on users’ computers seamlessly updating Outlook signatures at configured intervals. The new Agent gets signature settings from the Client Access Service or, in the case of remote users, from the user's mailbox using Exchange Web Services. •The Access database (settings.mdb) has been replaced by a new Built-in Database that can scale to any number of users and which does not require sharing on a network share. •The Email Signature Manager Service is now a core component of the product and is automatically installed/upgraded when installing Email Signature Manager. The new service always runs under the Local System account. The service account(s) for mailbox access are configured in a new Environment Configuration dialog.
