The Quick Agent Email form allows agents to send agent email messages without looking up the contact. It's included in the custom forms section of the left navigation panel. One of the advantages of this form is that you can designate the sending mailbox for each topic. If you have topics dedicated to a customer, you might want to use a private labeled mailbox for all email you send to that customer.
Topics that are not mapped to a mailbox will appear grayed out in the topic menu, and will use the Segment's default mailbox. Ensure your default mailbox has an appropriate name suitable to all recipients.
Configuring the Quick Agent Email form
Before agents can use this form, it needs to be configured. To configure the form, open the Manage Agent Email form from the Custom Forms Admin page.
The Manage Agent Email Form will look like the below screen before it's configured. You need to configure every segment that will be sending emails.
