Using Safari's templates, you can automatically generate standard correspondence to email or fax directly. For example: upon receiving a subpoena, you can send a "Notice of Delivery Date & Expected Cost" to the issuer, indicating a 60-day response time and an expected cost of $150, payable by credit card upon document collection. Also, for releasing specific record types, such as taxpayer records requiring IRS Form 8821, you can attach the necessary forms to the email or fax.
- Upon receiving a subpoena, you can send a "Notice of Delivery Date & Expected Cost" to the Serving Party, indicating a date by which you'll send responsive documents and the expected cost, which is payable by credit card when picking up the responsive documents.
- If you need a form filled out to release certain types of records (e.g., IRS Form 8821 for release of taxpayer records), you can include one or more attachments with the email or fax Correspondence.
How to Send an Email or Fax from a Correspondence Template
If your company has created Correspondence templates, you'll find them under the Correspondence folder by doing the following:
- Click +NEW
- Click "Correspondence"
- Then click on the template you want to use, or click "Blank Correspondence" to type one from scratch
Once you open a correspondence template, you can edit the content using the online editor.
Selecting the Recipient and Method of Delivery
When creating a Correspondence, you must select the delivery method (email or fax), and the primary Recipient. If you select Serving Party as the Recipient, it uses the email / fax fields in the Matter. If the Serving Party's name, email or fax is blank, you have two options:
- Click DRAFT for the Correspondence, edit the Serving Party's name, email or fax in the left-side fields, click SAVE , and then reopen the Correspondence and reselect "Serving Party," OR
- Change the Recipient to "Other" and then manually type in the info.
"From" Email Address
Emails are sent from no-reply@secure-share.com. Why is the email not sent from safarisop.com? Most Correspondence is sent to Serving Parties, who interact with the SecureShare portal. Because secure-share.com is the domain of the portal, Safari uses that domain for Correspondence as well.
"Reply-To" Email Address
CC Address
You can CC up to 10 additional email addresses when sending a Correspondence. To add a CC, click the "+CC" button.

NOTE: Safari does not track delivery status for CC emails. If a CC email fails to deliver, you will not receive an alert. Bounce notifications are only sent for the Recipient's email. For more information, see
Corresp. - Delivery Failure Alerts.
Important Details about Variables and Drafts
Below are several important details about working with variables:
- If the field has data, the value is shaded in grey:

- If the field doesn't have data, the variable is highlighted in yellow:

- You cannot Send the Correspondence if any of the variables have missing values -- you can only save as a DRAFT .
IMPORTANT: If you click SEND . and then change the content of a field on the left side before clicking SAVE , then the Correspondence is sent with the updated field value, not the value that was previously shown in the template.Status of the Correspondence
To send a Correspondence, click SEND and then SAVE , which delivers the Correspondence via the method you've selected. Safari shows a delivery status on the listing page, which is one of the following:
- Queued while Safari prepares the delivery
- In Process while Safari waits for a confirmation (see example below)
- Success
- Failure -- if there is a delivery failure, you'll be notified -- see the delivery failure alerts help topic for more information.
Re-sending Correspondence
After a correspondence has been sent, you can resend it to another recipient by clicking the ellipsis (...), clicking Resend, and then click SAVE
Downloading a PDF of Correspondence
When you view a sent Correspondence, the initial view is in your browser. If you'd like to download a PDF copy of the Correspondence, first open the Correspondence by clicking on the file name link, then click the View PDF button, and then you can click the download button.
