Mail Manager: Editing E-mail Accounts
|
E-mail accounts can be set up to save mail to a POP box (for later collection via an email client, such as MS Outlook), forward email to other mail accounts, forward email to offsite email addresses, or any combination of these. They can also have automatic responses generated when mail is received by the original account. Additionally, Mail Manager allows you to delete e-mail accounts as well as change passwords for e-mail accounts.
From the Control Panel, select the Mail Manager icon.
The Mail Manager displays.
- Select the desired e-mail account listed under the heading Addresses on the left-hand side of the screen. The Mailbox Options page displays the specified e-mail account.
- Set or amend the Mailbox Quota Size as needed. To remove all quotas, simply leave the box empty.
- Set the method of handling mail option required for this email account. These options are explained here:
- Forwarding to the email mailbox on the server. This is for normal mail processing and is the default setting. With this setting, mail is stored on the server until collected via Outlook (or deleted via WebMail)
- Forwarding to another mailbox on the server. If you select this option, you must also select the address (es) from the list of possible e-mail accounts on the server to which you would like to have the e-mail forwarded.
- Forwarding to an address outside the domain. If you select this option, you must manually type the e-mail address to which you are having mail forwarded in the text entry box provided. This would be used if you had an existing account with another service to which you would like your mail forwarded (e.g. ISP Mail address).
- After selecting the appropriate mail forwarding option, you may also manually type text in the auto-response text entry box. If you choose this, be sure to select the 'Autoresponse for mail' option. Any text you type in the space provided will automatically be sent to anyone who sends e-mail to the address you are currently editing.
- After all edits are completed, click on the Save button to apply the changes to the account. The message "Done" appears on your screen.
Note: It is generally advisable to select only one forwarding option for mail to avoid duplication of mail or unnecessary wasting of account disk space (where emails are being stored ready for collection, but never collected...).
