External Email

You can read and send committee mail in Apple Mail, Outlook, Thunderbird or Gmail, using a committee role address. This is optional. If the group is happy using Admin → Inbox on the website, leave it switched off.

Open Setup to turn the site setting on and create an application password, then open the guide for the mail app you use.
