Address Validation
Address validation software installed - If checked, this indicates that Satori address management software has been installed. This is a third party software that integrates with CAMS to ensure accurate address checking. Do NOT check this box if not using Satori address management software.
Mail room server - If using the Satori address correction software, you may choose to house the mail room server on another server besides the CAMS IIS server. If this is the case, enter the fully qualified domain name, which must be in the form: fully_qualified_doman_name:port with the port as 5150 by default. For example, if the server name is mailserver.yourschoolname.edu, then the entry in the Mailroom Server field would be mailserver.yourschoolname.edu:5150.
Note: If installing Satori on a server other than the CAMS IIS server, Satori mailroom server and Satori COM interfaces must be installed on the mailroom server, and Satori COM interfaces must be installed on the CAMS IIS server. If Satori is installed on the CAMS IIS server, only Satori COM interfaces must be installed on the CAMS IIS server.
