Background:
MuWave® E-Mail Gateway is a plug-in module for the Quillix™ web capture platform that monitors an email account (POP3, IMAP, Exchange) and captures all of the messages and attachments. The information captured includes the subject, message body, and all email attachments. Once the user submits the email, it is sent to the Quillix™ system for processing. Image attachments are automatically extracted and individual pages are separated. Rules and notifications can be configured throughout the entire email capture process. Quillix™ then files the emails and attachments in one or more document management systems or web portals such as Microsoft SharePoint. The entire process is directed by workflow rules that are specified using a graphical workflow editor. The Quillix™ server software runs on Microsoft Windows based servers and is capable of processing any email volume across a cluster of servers.
What UFC Inc. is Announcing Today:
MuWave® E-Mail Gateway.NET is being released in the summer of 2013 and represents the next major release of the product. In addition to implementing the latest Microsoft 64-bit .NET server technology, MuWave® E-Mail Gateway.NET removes any previous dependency on Microsoft Office through the use of Aspose.Total for .NET. Apose.Total for .NET leverages the power of the Microsoft .NET platform by replacing the functions that were previously being performed by Microsoft Office. Apose.Total for .NET allows MuWave® E-Mail Gateway to process any type of Microsoft Office document including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, as well as Visio and Project documents which were previously unsupported. These functions which include the creation of searchable PDFs are performed directly within MuWave® E-Mail Gateway.NET. No third party components are required so deployment on cloud-based servers is also now possible. Apose.Total for .NET implements rapid application development (RAD) and has made it possible UFC to deliver the new advanced features in MuWave® E-Mail Gateway.NET so quickly. Apose.Email for .NET is the subcomponent of Apose.Total for .NET that is used to monitor each mailbox and process the waiting emails.
MuWave® E-Mail Gateway.NET is configured within the Quillix Server cluster through a configuration screen shown below:
The processing options for each monitored mailbox are specified. This includes the Quillix specific information such as specifying which batch workflow will process the emails. The other settings specify how the email body and attachments are handled as well as specifying the rules for rejecting messages or attachments and for replying to messages.
How UFC Inc. Will Be Using Aspose:
Apose.Words for .NET is the component of Apose.Total for .NET that is used by MuWave® E-Mail Gateway.NET for converting email message bodies to image or PDF format. Apose.Words for .NET affords MuWave® E-Mail Gateway.NET the ability to process plain text, RTF, or HTML messages bodies seamlessly and quickly while maintaining all font spacing and formatting.
