Documents

The “Documents” module is Schreibzeug: open and edit Word, Excel, PowerPoint and PDF files in the browser, on your own server. It runs as a service of its own next to Kontext (optional) and appears in Kontext's window – without a second sign-in, light or dark like Kontext; an open document stays open while you answer a mail.

What you do with it

• Save attachments to Documents – into a folder, or open them right there. Attach from Documents while writing a mail. The files go from server to server, each time with the person's rights; for an encrypted mail the browser fetches them, so that they reach Stalwart only encrypted.
• One folder per shared mailbox: info@ and rechnung@ have documents of their own, open to everyone who works in the mailbox, and always in line with the company admin. An attachment from info@ lands there first.
• Files where they belong: share them in the chat, link them to a task or a contact, attach them to an appointment – whoever is there may open them.
• Signing out and blocking apply to both: whoever is blocked in Kontext is blocked in Documents too.

Schreibzeug also runs on its own, with “Sign in with Kontext” (OpenID Connect).
