| Q: |
How
Do I Forward My Email To Another Account? |
A:
|
Many
of our clients wish to have all of their
email forwarded to one main
account, such as an POP3 email address, or
a Hotmail address. This document will
explain how to set this function up, and
maintain it in the future.
Login to http://mail.yourdomain.com:8383
Enter Admin account as the username:
Admin@Yourdomain.Com.
Enter Admin account password.
On Main Menu under Option, click 'Change
User Forwarding Information'.
Enter the email address you want the email
to be forwarded to (The email address must
be a complete mail address). All email
sent to this account only will be
forwarded to the account you specify. When
you are satisfied, click the Save button
to apply the changes. If you are
successful, you will see a message telling
you that the account has been setup. Press
Menu to continue and leave the Change
Forward Menu.
Now you must test the account to verify
that it is forwarding.

How
Do I Setup Email Aliases? |
A:
|
If
you wish to remove or add an alias to a
POP account, you can do so at any time.
Login to http://mail.yourdomain.com:8383
On Main Menu under Administration, click
'Alias Administration'
In Alias Administration Menu, Click the
Add Alias button.
In the Alias text box, enter a name for
the alias.
Alias names are limited to 45 characters
and must be created from the character set
of digits and letters. The underline (_)
and hyphen (-) characters are valid. The
name cannot contain spaces and must be
unique within the system.
In the Destination text box, enter one of
the following:
A Standard Alias
A standard alias can point to a single
userid on the same system, multiple userids
on the same system, a remote e-mail
address, multiple e-mail addresses,
another alias, or any combination of the
same.
A List Alias
A list alias points to a file that
contains a list of valid mail addresses,
one per line.
After entering the alias properties, click
OK to add the alias. The new alias is
added to the list of registered aliases.
