ABBYY Recognition Server 2.0 System Administrator’s Guide
• Sending output documents by email (Send output file by email option in the Output Format Setting
dialog box of the workflow properties)
• Sending notifications about problems to the administrator if the Recognition Server cannot handle the problem
on its own. (Notify the administrator if a failure occurs option in the Recognition Server Properties
dialog box)
Note:
• Recognition Server only supports integration with a Microsoft Exchange email server. It cannot directly
monitor a POP3 or IMAP server mailbox, or send emails via an SMTP server.
• Microsoft Outlook 2000 or later must be installed on the computer where the Server Manager is installed.
The email account must be configured correctly on the computer where the Server Manager is installed for Recognition
Server to be able to process and send email messages. To configure the email account:
1. In the Control Panel, click Services, and then make sure that the ABBYY Recognition Server 2.0 Server Manager
service is configured to run under a domain user account. If, during the installation, you chose to run the
service under a Local System account, you should restart it under a domain user account (see Restarting
Services under a user account).
2. On the Microsoft Exchange Server computer, set up a mailbox or several mailboxes for the domain user
account under which the ABBYY Recognition Server 2.0 Server Manager service is running.
3. On the computer where the Server Manager is installed, log on to Windows by using the same user account
under which the ABBYY Recognition Server 2.0 Server Manager service is running, and start Microsoft Outlook.
Important! Microsoft Outlook has to be run under this user account on this computer at least once before the
workflow is set up.
4. Configure Microsoft Outlook to connect to Microsoft Exchange Server. You will need to provide the name of
the Exchange Server computer and the mailbox on the Exchange Server. If you wish to use mailboxes other
than the default mailbox, you should first connect these mailboxes to the current account. For example, to
connect a mailbox in Microsoft Outlook 2003:
• Select Tools > Email Accounts…> View or change Existing email accounts and click Next.
• Click the Change… button and then
click the More settings… button.
• On the Advanced tab of the Microsoft Exchange Server dialog box, click the Add… button and enter
the name of the mailbox you want to connect.
5. After the setup is complete, verify that you can send and receive mail interactively. You can then close
Microsoft Outlook.
Note: When configuring the workflow to monitor an Exchange Mailbox, you will be prompted to enter the path to the
mailbox folder. To be able to navigate to the folder using the Browse for folder dialog box of the Remote
Administration Console, you must first connect the desired mailbox in Microsoft Outlook on this computer.
Alternatively, you can enter the name of the mailbox folder manually in the following format: Mailbox 
Username\Folder. For example: Mailbox  Recognition Server\Inbox.
How to Configure Verification
ABBYY Recognition Server 2.0 includes Verification Stations that allow you to check and correct the recognized text.
The pages that require verification arrive to the Verification Station automatically after they are recognized. Detailed
information about Verification Station operation can be found in the Verification Station Help.
The verification settings in Recognition Server are specified for each workflow. For each Recognition Server workflow,
you can select one of the following options:
• No verification – all pages will be exported into the output document after recognition and will not be
routed to a Verification Station.
• Verify all pages – all pages will be queued for verification after they are recognized and before they are
exported to an output file.
• Verify only pages on which uncertain characters exceed N%  only pages recognized with low
confidence will be queued for verification.
