Email Collaboration
Old habits die hard. With Zoho Projects, sending out emails is one such habit you don't have to give up! Manage everything like firing away tasks, posting a topic for discussion in the forum, filing issues and much more right from mail if and when you need it.
Project email alias
Each project has a unique email alias for task, document, forums and issues. The general format of the email alias is _ @zohoprojects.com. The admin or the project manager can change the unique string to suit the project. For example : zylker_erp@zohoprojects.com, where zylker is the portal URL and erp is the unique project string. Based on the above example, a project has the below email aliases.
- zylker_erp@zohoprojects.com
- zylker_erp@tasks.zohoprojects.com
- zylker_erp@forum.zohoprojects.com
- zylker_erp@document.zohoprojects.com
- zylker_erp@issue.zohoprojects.com
