You still need to use the Alfresco explorer JSF client to set it up, but once you've got it setup, you
can file data into the Records Management module, an Alfresco Share site document library, or
anywhere in the repository.

submitting emails. ► April (3)

Step 3 -- Add Users to the EMAIL_CONTRIBUTORS group
► February (9)
While still in the Alfresco administration area on the Alfresco explorer client, go into group
administration. Make sure that all users that are to be enabled to submit email uploads to Alfresco ► January (7)
are part of the Alfresco group EMAIL_CONTRIBUTORS.
Step 3 -- Setup email aliases for Alfresco folders (spaces) SUBSCRIBE TO KEY TO CONTENT
Identify which folders in Alfresco that you'd like users to be able to submit to. To do that, navigate Posts
to each of the target folders in the repository.

For example, here is a new folder in my user home area that is called "Email Inbox"
On examination of the properties for this folder, you can see an entry called "Email ID". This is
really all you need for being able to send emails. I can do an email upload submit by sending my
email to this email address, like: 545@ec2-184-73-58-194.compute-1.amazonaws.com.

But it is somewhat nicer to be able to send to an email address that is easier to remember than
just a number.
To create an alias for the Email ID numeric, you need to first add an aspect to the folder.
Run Action -> Add Aspect to Item. Select the "Email alias" aspect.
The property "Email Alias" is now available. By selecting edit for the properties, you can define an
alias for the submit email name. For example, I can use 'inbox'. Note that the name you select is
case sensitive. After doing that, I can submit emails to populate the folder associated with the alias
name, like: inbox@ec2-184-73-58-194.compute-1.amazonaws.com.

20.10.2017 Key to Content: Upload Files to Alfresco via Email -- Inbound Emails
Send an email to the Alfresco email
server: inbox@ec2-184-73-58-194.compute-1.amazonaws.com, using the name appropriate for your system.
In this case I sent an email and an attachment called 'AlfrescoRMintro.txt'.
Then check the folder. Both the email body (with name based on the email subject) and
attachment have been uploaded to the folder.
Yes, that's really great. If you look at the property page for this email, you'll see something like
this:
There's only one thing that makes it not totally perfect. On the property page for the email body,
you can see the Attachments property with a link to the attachment document. That's great, but it
isn't a live link. You need to manually go back to the folder level and find the attachment
document. It would nice to just be able to click right there to see the attachment.
