Once email recipients are selected in ChamberMaster, there are two methods of sending the email:

• Using ChamberMaster's built-in email tool.
• Using Microsoft Outlook (if installed on your computer).

Depending on your needs, you may choose to send some emails directly from ChamberMaster and some from Microsoft Outlook. Each method has its strengths.
