Do not enter anything other than email addresses
When the [Mail] button or Mail Merge is used create emails the "Email Address" above is entered in the "To" field and all entries in this field are placed in the CC field. If you only want to send to the landlord it is your responsibility to delete the unwanted CC entries.
Copies of email statements will not be sent to these CC entries, but only to the addresses entered in Landlord > Payment > Statement email copies to memo box.
If you wish to restrict the statement recipients either do not enter addresses here or amend or delete the entries in the Admin > Email Queue > CC field each time you create statements.
Note
Some Internet software and/or service providers do not accept special characters in the "To" name or email address. If you find some email function does not work, check the Aspect Property Manager "Address To" field and the email address. For example, Outlook Express will accept "Mary & John Jones" but Outlook will not. To test for this type of problem temporarily replace the name and email address fields with entries you know work, preferably your own, and try them.
