Setting up the inbound email parser

Readysell can be set up to automatically import and parse email for various scenarios, including:

• Reading meter counts sent automatically from machines
• Reading meter counts sent in response to a meter count run
• Creating and updating cases

To use the Readysell email parser, you will need a dedicated email address with a dedicated mailbox that Readysell can read from. The email address should be name "readysell@(company mail domain)". Setting up a separate email account allow Readysell to manage the mail which go into that account and don't interfere with the directly email account.
