Does a shared mailbox need a license?

No. A Microsoft 365 shared mailbox does not need its own license, within Microsoft's storage limit for shared mailboxes. The people who use it need their own Microsoft 365 licenses, and one of them signs in to connect it.

Do I need an app password?

Only when the mailbox has two-factor authentication or the provider requires one for third-party mail clients. Then create it in the provider's security settings and use it in place of the normal password.

What is the WhatsApp 24-hour window?

The period after a customer's last message in which a business can reply with free text. It restarts with every inbound message. Once it closes, only an approved template can be delivered.

What happens when the trial ends?

The workspace pauses until you choose a plan. Mail keeps syncing and stays readable; sending, assignments, action items and the assistant wait. Nothing is deleted.

Does the assistant send anything on its own?

No. It drafts, reminds, assigns, tags and briefs, and every action is confirmed or undoable. A person always sends.

Does Sektra store our Gmail or Outlook passwords?

No. Those connect through Google or Microsoft sign-in, which hands Sektra a token you can revoke from your Google or Microsoft account. IMAP mailboxes do connect with a password, stored encrypted.

What is first response time?

The time from a customer's first message in a new conversation to your team's first reply, measured once per conversation and reported as average, p50 and p90.

Do Sektra tags show up in Gmail?

Yes, as labels, when Sync other events from Sektra to Gmail is on for that inbox. Turn it off and tags stay in Sektra only.
