Wayne Connect was updated on Oct. 21 by Computing & Information Technology (C&IT) to version 7 of Zimbra, to bring you the latest features.

With the upgrade, the old method of using the documents copy/paste method is now obsolete. Below is the new method to send an HTML email from Wayne Connect, using our CMS email manager:

Step 1:

Once you have finalized and reviewed your HTML Email inside the CMS email manager, click the “View Preview” button in the lower-right area in edit mode to bring up the “Preview Screen.”

Step 2:

Once in “Preview Mode” make sure all the users with access, including yourself, have approved the final HTML email in order to view it.

Step 3:

Once approved, right click and do a “Select All” in the area next to the content body, within the preview box.

Step 4:

Once everything is selected, right click again and “Copy.”

Step 5:

Go to https://connect.wayne.edu and log in. Make sure your under the “Mail” tab and hit “New.”

Step 6:

Make sure under “Options” your preference is set to “Format to HTML.”

Step 7:

Right click in the body/text area and hit “Paste.”

Step 8:

You should now see your HTML Email in graphic format with the header and footer.  Enter the email/Listerv address in the “To:” field and a Subject in the “Subject:” field.  Always TEST Your Email Before sending the final!

Other Tips:

We have had the best success with using the Firefox browser, when sending out HTML emails via Wayne Connect.

TEST, TEST, TEST!  Always perform a quick test email to yourself and inspect it before sending the final.
