Axosoft Email Service
The Axosoft Email Service installation is required to monitor POP/IMAP email accounts and send notifications or emails.
Important: If you are performing an upgrade in a test environment using a backup version of your database, make sure to deactivate all incoming email accounts under Tools Other Settings Email Accounts as to not pull email messages into this test environment rather than going to your production database.
