If you are using the MainBoss Service module, you should adjust its configuration so that the service knows about MainBossWeb. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Login under a user name with Windows Administrator and MainBoss Administration permissions.
  2. Start MainBoss.
  3. Go to Administration | MainBoss Service | Configuration.
  4. Double-click the single record in the table viewer.
  5. In the resulting window, go to the Outgoing Mail section.
  6. Set the field "MainBoss Web Access URL" to the URL for your MainBossWeb web site, e.g. http://ourcompany.com/MainBossWeb.
  7. Click Save and Close.
  8. Go to Administration | MainBoss Service.
  9. Click Configure the Windows Service for MainBoss. This updates MainBoss Service to use your new configuration.
  10. Click Restart Service to stop the service and start it again with the new configuration.

If you do not do the above, messages sent out by MainBoss Service may contain URLs that do not work.
