All output is sent into your archive or supervision platform as a threaded EML file. This helps to keep conversations together for easy and logical viewing. A service indicator can be appended or prepended to the subject line to allow for simple searching. Message edits and deletes are both captured. Shared files and images are referenced in the conversation and attached to the EML output. Additional samples are available upon request.
