Configure User Settings

• admin - Admins can access the Server tab to configure the Faspex server. They can create, edit, and delete every type of Faspex user (admins, managers, and regular users), and they can send packages (perform file transfers). Admins can also manage workgroups (create/edit/delete).
• manager - The manager role enables Faspex server administration to be separate from Faspex user accounts administration. Managers can send packages, create/edit/delete workgroups, and create/edit/delete other managers and regular users. They can promote regular users to managers, and demote other Managers to regular users. However, they cannot, edit admin accounts or promote another user to admin. Managers do not have access to the Server tab, nor can they change the Faspex server configuration (a privilege limited to admins).
• user - Regular users can send packages through Faspex. They typically do not manage other users or workgroups.

Faspex sends a copy of every package receipt notification sent to this account to the Faspex users and email addresses listed in this field. Recipients listed in this field receive notifications for every package sent and received by this account. The CC Receipt field on the New Package page is auto-populated with the adddresses listed in this field.

If the sender has permission to Allow editing of receipt addresses on package creation, whatever the sender enters in the CC Receipt field on the New Package page overrides this setting. If the sender removes any of the original email addresses from the field, Faspex does not send a notification to that user.

If the sender does not have permission to Allow editing of receipt addresses on package creation, then this field is honored.

Select to allow users to modify addresses to receive notification emails regarding a package sent by this user.
