Just incase any readers were not aware, the 2016 release of Reckon Accounts Business Desktop range, is now fully webmail compatible.

What this means is, you can now send emails from Reckon Accounts Desktop, to your Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, Hotmail accounts (and more), without the need for Outlook!

This means no more compatibility issues with Microsoft Office, and no longer do you need Outlook installed just to be able to send email from Reckon Accounts.

Well worth upgrading for in my opinion!

Once Reckon Hosted is upgraded to 2016, this feature will also be available in Hosted.

    Hi Nathan,

    Thanks for the comment.

    One correction though, Reckon Accounts Hosted 2016 will not allow users to send via webmail. The Hosted email service will be upgraded later in the year and one of its features will be your email address showing as the sender rather than the generic accountshosted@reckon.com.

    regards,
    John.

    Thanks John, yes Andrew, that's why it's always a good idea to check your sent mail!

    What if you like using Outlook? Does it still work?  Well it wasn't bug free even with Outlook but at least it worked.
