About the Inbox Agent
The eCopy Inbox Agent is a Windows service that is installed with the Services Manager. It uses
the userdirs.txt file to provide eCopy Desktop with the path information that eCopy Desktop
needs to connect to scan inboxes or network home directories. eCopy Desktop uses the UDP
(User Datagram Protocol) to communicate with the Inbox Agent.
Important! The default UDP server port is 9999 and the client port is 8888. The default multicast server and
client IP address is 239.254.5.6. If you need to change these settings, contact Customer Support
for assistance.
Example
If you are logged on to your PC as <auser>, eCopy Desktop sends a UDP message to the Inbox Agent
requesting the path to your scan inbox. The Inbox Agent looks up <auser> in the userdirs.txt file and returns the
path to eCopy Desktop, which uses it to open <auser>’s scan inbox.
