How to Enable and Set Up Your Mailbox


The Atlas Mailbox lets you connect your email account to Atlas.md. You have the option of connecting directly with your Google Workspace/Gmail account, your Microsoft365/Outlook.com account, or a separate IMAP connection.

After selecting which mailbox you’d like to connect, Atlas.md parses messages to and from your patients and sends them straight to the application, allowing you a super-easy way to keep track of your communication with your patients.
