You, the seller, will develop the code on this server or add developed code daily. You will also report daily what work has been done and which milestones have been accomplished. You will document the code and additionally installed software segments (like drivers, software libraries etc so we will be able to install/copy the final version of the software on a different server. Phase 1 (see below) is to be completed within 1 week after winning the auction. For details see: "Detailed requirements" below ## Deliverables Project details: Phase 1: Email Engine To be completed till end of Day 1: Create Excel document with sheet data_Accounts, data_Email, Data_Reply.
