Definition

Welcome message sent to new users added to this domain. The message must contain a header and a message body. The message header must contain at least a subject line. The header and body are separated by a blank line. Enter the mail-domain welcome message on a single line. You must use a $ (dollar sign) to represent a new line. To indicate a blank line, use $$ (two dollar signs).

You can use the following variables in the mail-domain welcome message:

[ID] The userid (message store user ID).

[URL] The url location specified with the configutil parameter, gen.accounturl. You can configure this parameter to point the user to, for example, the url of the administrative interface where the user can customize the client configuration.

Example

The following example would be entered on a single line, even though it appears on this page on multiple lines:
