Unoverica Message Transport v2.11 Chapter 4: Managing Mail Accounts

Chapter 4: Managing Mail Accounts

4.1 Managing Mail Accounts

After successfully installing, any NetWare users who exist in the bindery (whether on a NetWare 3.x server, or in a NetWare 4.x server’s bindery context) can send and receive mail immediately. However, it is likely that you will need to customize your installation to accurately reflect the users of your network.

Depending on your network environment, there are a variety of tasks that you may need to perform before the Unoverica Message Transport mail system is fully integrated with your network. Among these tasks are:

Synchronize the NetWare user accounts with Unoverica Message Transport’s internal directory. For more information on this subject, refer to section 4.2 Synchronizing NetWare Accounts with Unoverica Message Transport’s Directory.
Create user accounts on your mail system for non-local or non-NetWare users. For more information on this subject, refer to section 4.3 Creating and Modifying User Accounts.
Establish recipient accounts for the system management aliases (including postmaster, mailer-daemon, supervisor, admin and others), and create any additional aliases required by your system. For more information on this subject, refer to section 4.4 Managing Alias Accounts.
Import and Export user accounts from remote Unoverica Message Transport servers into another server’s Unoverica Message Transport directory. For more information on this subject, refer to section 4.5 Exporting and Importing User Accounts.

STEP: To continue to the next step in the configuration process, go to section 4.2 Synchronizing NetWare Accounts with Unoverica Message Transport’s Directory.
