Setting up Keyword Alerts

This is a two-step process - enabling scanning for keywords and creating the keywords list.

Why use Import?

For a company that has multiple installations of eBlaster, having the ability to import the same keyword list for all the installations saves having to type in the list for each installation. SpectorSoft's scripted installation enables your Network Administrator to create all the configuration options for the eBlaster setup and then place that installation on an employee's computer without having to go to each computer.

To set up keyword alerts:

  1. Open the eBlaster Control Panel.

  2. From the Top Toolbar, click Options and then from the Left Toolbar, click Alerts Setup. Show Me
    The Keyword Scanning window is displayed.

  3. In the Keyword Scanning  options, select or clear the following check boxes:

  4. Keywords Enabled This option will scan all captured data for your specified keywords.

  5. Send Instant Keyword Alerts  This option will send an instant email notification alerting you the keyword was used.

  1. Click Save button to save changes
    or
    click Cancel if you do not want to save your changes.
    The Control Panel closes.

Note Use Add or Import to create a keyword list.
