Chapter 4 Managing Mail Users and Mailing Lists

This chapter explains how mail accounts and mailing lists are implemented in Netscape Messaging Server, and it describes how to use the Netscape Console interface to create and manage your users' mail accounts and mailing lists.

This chapter has the following sections:


About Users and Groups for Messaging
Netscape Messaging Server requires close integration with an LDAP directory service such as Netscape Directory Server. One reflection of this close integration is the manner in which mail accounts and mailing lists are implemented.

 Users and Mail Accounts

An LDAP user directory can contain a wide range of information about an organization's employees, members, clients, or other types of individuals that in one way or another "belong" to the organization. These individuals constitute the users of the organization. In the LDAP directory, the information about users is structured for efficient searching, with each user entry identified by a set of attributes. Directory attributes associated with a user can include the user's name and other identification, division membership, job classification, physical location, name of manager, names of direct reports, access permission to various parts of the organization, and preferences of various kinds.

In an organization with electronic messaging services, many if not all users hold mail accounts. For Netscape Messaging Server, mail-account information is not stored locally on the server; it is part of the LDAP user directory. The information for each mail account is stored as mail attributes attached to a user's entry in the directory. To retrieve or modify information for a specific user's mail account, an administrator uses the Messaging Server interface to access that user's mail attributes in the directory.

 Groups and Mailing Lists

An LDAP user directory can contain entries that represent collections of users. These directory groups can consist of a specific set of users or they can be rule-based, with membership defined by job classification or any other user attributes.

Groups can exist for a wide variety of purposes, and they have their own sets of attributes in the user directory. Groups may be used for information sharing in departments or on projects, for providing selective access to sensitive data, for discussion on shared interests, for disseminating company or division policy, and so on.

 Netscape Messaging Server provides support for mailing lists, which can be thought of as group addresses (similar to sendmail aliases) with additional associated information (such as a set of access permissions for posting to the list). As with mail-account information, Messaging Server stores mailing-list information in the LDAP user directory rather than locally. The information is stored as a set of attributes belonging to a particular group. To retrieve or modify information for a specific mailing list, an administrator uses the Netscape Console interface to access the appropriate group's attributes in the user directory.

 You can create a group with mail attributes, or you can add mailing-list capability to any existing directory group.

 Mail-Administration Features

You use the mail-administration portion of the Netscape Console interface to configure and administer the mail accounts and mailing lists hosted by your Messaging Server.

For any user in your user directory, you can perform the following tasks:

 For any group in your user directory, you can perform the following tasks:

 Subsequent sections in this chapter give detailed discussions of these administrative tasks. Before you can perform them, however, you must first enable the mail-administration interface, as described in the next section.

 Note: For entry or manipulation of large numbers of mail accounts, it may be more efficient to use bulk methods than to use the Netscape Console interface described here. For more information, see the discussion on migration tools in Appendix A, Command-line Utilities and Appendix B, sendmail Migration and Compatibility.


Managing Mail Users
Accessing Mail Users

This section describes how to open the mail administration interface for your users. Messaging Server mail accounts are stored as attributes of user entries in your enterprise's central LDAP user directory. Therefore, to manage mail accounts, you modify user entries in that directory.

Creating a New User

To create a new mail account, you create a new user in the directory. You must also install a mail account for that user; if you do not install the mail account, the mail-administration portion of Netscape Console is not available for that user. (The full process of creating a user and specifying other kinds of user information is described in more detail in Chapter 4, "User and Group Administration," of Managing Servers with Netscape Console.)

To create a new mail user:

  1. In the Netscape Console main window, click the Users and Groups tab.

  2. From the drop-down list, choose New User and click Create.

  3. Select an organizational unit for the user and click OK. The Create User window opens (see Figure 4.1).

  4. Enter information about the user as described in Chapter 4, "User and Group Administration," of Managing Servers with Netscape Console.

  5. Leave the Create User window open and click the Account tab. A list of installed products for the new user's account appears in the right pane (see Figure 4.2).

  6. Click the Mail Account Install box. The Mail tab becomes visible in the Create User window.

  7. Click the Mail tab in the Create User window, then click the tab you want in the right pane (see Figure 4.3).

    8. (These are the tabs described in this chapter.)

  8. Enter your changes, then click OK at the bottom of the Create User window.

    9. Note: Make sure you complete all setup procedures in the relevant tabs before clicking OK.

Figure 4.1 Create User window (User tab selected) without Mail tab

Figure 4.2 Create User window (Account tab selected) with Mail Account option

Figure 4.3 Create User window with mail account installed (Mail tab selected)

 Accessing an Existing User

To modify an existing mail account or to add mail capabilities to an existing user, you access the appropriate user in the user directory and then add or modify that user's mail-account attributes.

To access mail information for an existing user:

  1. In the Netscape Console main window, click the Users and Groups tab.

  2. In the Users and Groups main window, Click Search or Advanced Search.

  3. Enter your search criteria (such as the user's last name) in the Search window, and perform the search of the user directory.

  4. Return to the Users and Groups main window, select a user from the search results and click Edit.

  5. If the Mail tab is not visible in the Edit Entry window, do this:

  6. Click the Mail tab in the Edit Entry window, then click the tab you want in the right pane.

    7. (These are the tabs described in this chapter; they are identical to those you access through Create User window.)

  7. Enter your changes, then click OK at the bottom of the Edit Entry window.
Specifying User Email Addresses

Before mail can be delivered successfully to a user, you must specify the mail addressing information for that user. This consists of the Messaging Server host name, the user's primary address, and any alternate addresses. The host name and primary address information is mandatory; alternate address information is optional.

To specify a user's mail addressing information:

  1. In Netscape Console, access the Create User or Edit Entry window, as described in Accessing Mail Users.

  2. Click the Mail tab.

  3. Click the Settings tab, if it is not already active.

  4. (Required) Enter the Messaging Server host name.

    5. This is the machine hosting the Messaging Server that will process this user's mail. This must be the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) known to the Messaging Server on that machine.

  5. (Required) Enter the user's primary email address.

    6. This is the publicized address to which this user's mail is sent. There can be only one primary address for a user, which must be a valid, correctly formatted SMTP address conforming to RFC 821 specifications.

    If you want to implement host name hiding (the host name in the user's address is not shown in the outgoing mail header), do not specify the host name in the Primary email address field. Instead, enter an alternate address that includes the host name as described in the next step.

  6. (Optional) Add an address to the Alternate Address list.

    7. An alternate address is essentially an alias for the user's primary address. You can use this feature to:

    You can specify any number of alternate addresses for a particular user, as long as each address is unique. Messages that arrive for any of these aliases are directed to the primary address.

    To add an alternate address:

  7. To enable mail services for a specific type of server, check one or more of the available options: IMAP, POP, and HTTP.

  8. Click OK at the bottom of the Edit Entry window if you have finished making changes to this user's mail information. Otherwise, click other tabs to continue making changes.
Configuring Delivery Options

Messaging Server supports three principal mail-delivery options that you can enable and configure, in any combination, for each user. You can provide regular POP/IMAP delivery, program delivery, and Unix delivery (for clients of a Unix Messaging Server host).

Messaging Server also provides an end-user HTML interface through which users can themselves enable and configure these options. The Netscape Console (administrator) interface and the HTML (user) interface both manipulate the same directory attributes; when opened, each shows the current settings, whether they were set by the administrator or by the user.

 To configure delivery options for a user:

  1. In Netscape Console, access the Create User or Edit Entry window, as described in Accessing Mail Users.

  2. Click the Mail tab.

  3. Click the Delivery tab.

  4. Select the delivery method or methods you want to enable for this user:

  5. Click OK at the bottom of the Edit Entry window if you have finished making changes to this user's mail information. Otherwise, click other tabs to continue making changes.
Specifying POP/IMAP Delivery

Specifying this option enables mail delivery to the user's regular POP3 or IMAP4 mailboxes. To enable POP/IMAP delivery for this user:

  1. Click the Delivery tab.

  2. Check the POP/IMAP box, and click the Properties button to open the POP/IMAP Delivery window.

  3. (Optional) Enter the nickname (not the path name or absolute physical path) of the message-store partition to which the user's messages will be delivered and stored for processing. If you leave this field blank, the current primary partition is used. For more information, see Chapter 5, Managing the Message Store.

  4. (Optional) Enter the storage limit, or disk quota, to be allotted to the user. The quota can be either unlimited (no maximum storage limit), or you can specify a limit (in KB or MB). Unlimited is the default.

  5. (Optional) Specify the access domains from which the user can retrieve mail.

    6. Note. If no access domains are specified in the Access domain field, the user can retrieve mail from any domain.

    To specify an access domain:

Specifying Program Delivery

Specifying this option provides a mechanism for forwarding messages to an external application for processing before delivery to the user.

Note: This section describes only how to make the program delivery option available to an individual user. Before you can make it available to a user, you must first enable the program delivery module as a whole, which requires performing several other administrative tasks. For details, see Chapter 12, Program Delivery.

To enable program delivery for this user:

  1. Click the Delivery tab.

  2. Check the Program delivery box, and click the Properties button to open the Program Delivery window.

  3. Enter the external application command(s) to be used for processing this user's mail.

  4. Click OK.
Specifying Unix Delivery

Specifying this option selects Unix delivery for this user. The Unix delivery feature allows messages to be delivered to the user's designated Unix mailbox. Unix delivery is available only to users whose Messaging Server runs on a Unix host machine.

To enable Unix delivery for this user:

  1. Click the Delivery tab.

  2. Check the Unix delivery box.
Note: To provide Unix delivery to Messaging Server users, you must also perform normal Unix mail administrative tasks.

 Specifying Forwarding Addresses

The mail-forwarding feature of Messaging Server enables a user's mail to be forwarded to another address instead of or in addition to the primary address for that user.

Messaging Server also provides an end-user HTML interface through which users can themselves specify forwarding addresses. The Netscape Console (administrator) interface and the HTML (user) interface both manipulate the same directory attributes; when opened, each shows the current settings, whether they were set by the administrator or by the user.

To specify forwarding-address information for a user:

  1. In Netscape Console, access the Create User or Edit Entry window, as described in Accessing Mail Users.

  2. Click the Mail tab.

  3. Click the Forwarding tab.

    4. The Forwarding Address field shows the current set of forwarding addresses, if any, for the user.

  4. To add a forwarding address, Click Add.

  5. In the Forwarding Address window, enter a forwarding address.

  6. Click OK to add the address to the Forwarding address field in the Mail Forwarding tab and close the Forwarding Address window.

  7. Click OK at the bottom of the Edit Entry window if you have finished making changes to this user's mail information. Otherwise, click other tabs to continue making changes.
Note: Do not set up forwarding address for two users on the same Messaging Server to point to each other if both user accounts have no other delivery type enabled. Doing so can cause mail delivery problems.

 Configuring Auto-Reply Settings

The auto-reply feature of Netscape Messaging Server lets you specify an automatic response to incoming mail for a user. You can specify three different auto-reply modes: echo mode, vacation mode, and auto-reply mode.

Messaging Server also provides an end-user HTML interface through which users can themselves enable and configure auto-reply settings. The Netscape Console (administrator) interface and the HTML (user) interface both manipulate the same directory attributes; when opened, each shows the current settings, whether they were set by the administrator or by the user.

 To enable an auto-reply service for a user:

  1. In Netscape Console, access the Create User or Edit Entry window, as described in Accessing Mail Users.

  2. Click the Mail tab.

  3. Click the Auto-Reply tab.

  4. Select one of the auto-reply modes:

    5. Off: Disables auto-reply for this user.

    Echo: An automatic reply is sent for each received message and the received message appended as a MIME attachment to the reply. If you select this mode, you can enter a reply message in the Message field.

    Vacation: The first message received by this user from a given sender generates an automatic response; subsequent messages from that sender do not generate a response. If you select this mode, you use the Vacation start/ end date options and enter a reply message in the Reply text field.

    Auto-reply: Every incoming message received by the user generates the specified automatic response. (The received message is not attached to the reply.) If you select this mode, you can enter a reply message in the Message field.

  5. If you selected vacation mode, supply dates and times to determine when the auto-reply message should start and end:

  6. If you selected echo, vacation, or auto-reply mode, type a reply message to be returned to the sender.

    7. You can create one message in each of several available languages that you select with the drop-down list located above the message text area.

  7. Click OK at the bottom of the Edit Entry window if you have finished making changes to this user's mail information. Otherwise, click other tabs to continue making changes.

Managing Mailing Lists
Accessing Mailing Lists

This section describes how to get to the administration interface for your mailing lists. Because Messaging Server mailing lists are stored as attributes of group entries in an LDAP user directory, managing mailing lists means accessing and modifying directory groups.

Creating a New Group

To create a new mailing list, you create a new group in the directory. You must also install a mail account for that group; if you do not install the mail account, the mail-administration portion of Netscape Console is not available for that group. (The full process of creating a directory group and specifying other kinds of group information is described in more detail in Chapter 4, "User and Group Administration," of Managing Servers with Netscape Console.)

To create a new mailing list:

  1. In the Netscape Console main window, click the Users and Groups tab.

  2. From the drop-down list, choose New Group and click Create.

  3. Select an organizational unit for the group and click OK.

  4. In the Create Group window (see Figure 4.4), enter the information required to create the group entry as described in Chapter 4, "User and Group Administration," of Managing Servers with Netscape Console.

    5. Note: For mailing-list purposes only, you do not have to add members using the Users and Groups Members tab; you can instead add them using the Mail account Email-Only Members tab:

  5. Leave the Create Group window open and click the Account tab.

    6. A list of installed products for the group account appears in the right pane.

  6. Click the Mail Account box.

    7. The Mail tab becomes visible in the Create Group window.

  7. Click the Mail tab in the Create Group window, then click the appropriate tab in the right pane (see Figure 4.5).

    8. (These are the tabs described in this chapter.)

  8. Enter your changes, then click OK at the bottom of the Create Group window.

    9. This action submits your entries and dismisses the Create Group window.

    Note: Clicking OK at the bottom of any mail administration window submits all of the current mail configuration information entered in all of the mail administration tabs. Make sure you complete all setup procedures in the relevant windows before clicking OK.

Figure 4.5 Create Group window with mail account installed (Mail tab selected)

 Accessing an Existing Group

To modify an existing mailing list, or to add mailing-list capabilities to an existing group, you access the appropriate group in the user directory and then add or modify its mail-account attributes.

To access mailing-list information for an existing group:

  1. In the Netscape Console main window, click the Users and Groups tab.

  2. In the Users and Groups main window, Click Search or Advanced Search.

  3. Enter your search criteria (such as the group's name) in the Search window, and perform the search of the user directory.

  4. Return to the Users and Groups main window, select a group from the search results and click Edit.

  5. If the Mail tab is not visible in the Edit Entry window, do this:

  6. In the Edit Entry window, click the Mail tab, then click the tab you want in the right pane.

    7. (These tabs are identical to those you access through the Create Group window.)

  7. Enter your changes, then click OK at the bottom of the Edit Entry window to submit your modifications.
Specifying Mailing List Settings

Before mail can be delivered successfully to your mailing list, you must specify its mail-addressing information. This consists of the primary address for the group and any alternate addresses you want to accept as aliases to the primary address. You can also specify the owner(s) of the list, optional descriptive information, members, attributes, restrictions, and actions (email responses) of the mailing list.

To specify mailing-list information:

  1. In Netscape Console, access the Create Group or Edit Entry window, as described in Accessing Mailing Lists.

  2. Click the Mail tab.

  3. Click the Settings tab, if it is not already the active tab.

  4. (Required) Enter the mailing list's primary email address.

    5. This is the publicized address to which this list's mail will be delivered. There can be only one primary address for a list. It must be a correctly formatted SMTP address that conforms to RFC 821 specifications.

  5. (Optional) Specify an alternate address for the mailing list.

    6. An alternate address is an alias for the group's primary address. You can use this feature to:

    You can specify any number of alternate addresses for a group, as long as each address is unique. Messages that arrive for any of these aliases are directed to the primary address.

    To add an alternate email address:

  6. (Optional) In the "Errors to" field, enter the email address of a person to whom errors in posting messages to the list should be sent.

  7. (Optional) Enter the host name of the machine hosting this mailing list.

    8. If the "Primary email address" field for this mailing list includes a host name, you can leave this field blank. If you implement host-name hiding by having no host name in the primary email address, specify the host name in this field.

    Unlike a user mail account, if you do not specify a host name for a mailing list, any host that has access to the list's LDAP entry will be able to process the list (which, in most cases, is what you want). If you want to restrict processing of the list to one or more specific hosts, you should specify one or more host names. For example, you may want to force a large group to be processed on an under-utilized server to reduce stress on a server that is more heavily used.

    Note: This window lets you enter only one host name at a time. To enter multiple host names, use the ldapmodify command line utility.

  8. (Optional) Enter a mailing list owner.

    9. A list owner has administrative privileges for adding or removing users, modifying configuration settings, or deleting the list.

    To specify a new mailing list owner, click the Owners tab and then either:

    Note: Selecting an owner from the Search Users and Group window automatically adds the correct syntax of the DN for you. For more details on the Search Users and Groups window, see Chapter 4, "User and Group Administration," of Managing Servers with Netscape Console.

  9. (Optional) Add descriptive information.

    10. To add text or a URL for information purposes (not for use by Messaging Server), click the Descriptions tab, then use one or both of the following options:

  10. Click OK at the bottom of the Edit Entry window if you have finished making changes to this mailing list. Otherwise, click other tabs to continue making changes.
Specifying List Members

To add email-only members to your mailing list, use one or both of the following methods:

The mailing-list members described here are called email-only members in the Users and Groups interface of Netscape Console because they have group privileges limited to those provided by the mailing-list component of the group. "Regular" group members, which you add using a different part of the interface (described in Managing Servers with Netscape Console), might have additional privileges or responsibilities beyond those of mailing-list members. For more information on groups, see Chapter 4, "User and Group Administration," of Managing Servers with Netscape Console.

 Defining Dynamic Membership Criteria

Dynamic criteria consist of LDAP search URLs that are used as filters in searching the user directory for determining membership. This mechanism is dynamic in that, when a message arrives for the group, the individuals that receive it are determined by a directory search rather than by consulting a static list of names. You can thus create and maintain very large or complex groups without having to track each member explicitly.

LDAP search filters must be formatted in LDAP URL syntax. For more detailed information on constructing LDAP filters, see Chapter 4, "User and Group Administration," of Managing Servers with Netscape Console. See also the Netscape Directory Server documentation and RFC 1959.

 An LDAP URL has the following syntax:

 
ldap://hostname:port/base_dn?attributes?scope?filter
where the options of the URL have the following meanings:
option
Description
hostname
 Host name of the Directory Server (Defaults to the Directory server host name used by Messaging Server).
port
 Port number for the LDAP server. If no port is specified, it defaults to the standard LDAP port used by Messaging Server.
base_dn
 Distinguished name of an entry in the directory, to be used as the search base. This component is required.
attributes
 The attributes to be returned. These attributes are supplied by Messaging Server.
scope
Scope of search:
filter
Search filter to apply to entries within the specified scope of the search. If no filter is specified, ( ) is used.

The following is an example of an LDAP search URL that filters for users who have Sunnyvale as their mail host:

 
ldap:///o=Airius Corp,c=US??sub?(&(mailHost=sunnyvale.ace.com)
  (objectClass=inetOrgPerson))
The above URL filters for users who are members of the organization of Airius (o=Airius), in the United States (c=US), and have a mail host of Sunnyvale (mailHost=sunnyvale). The objectClass attribute defines the type of entry for which to search, in this case inetOrgPerson (objectClass=inetOrgPerson).

 Note that when you create a search filter using Netscape Console, all group names are ignored; that is, only user names are included in the search results whereas group members are not. The purpose of this setting is to avoid duplicating users that are also group members in the search results. This setting can be overridden using the command line configuration utility (configutil), but it is not recommended.

 As noted in the next section, Netscape Console provides a template window (the Construct LDAP Search URL window) that you can use as an aid in building a search URL.

 Adding Mailing-List Members

To add (email-only) members to a mailing list:

  1. In Netscape Console, access the Create Group or Edit Entry window, as described in Accessing Mailing Lists.

  2. Click the Mail tab.

  3. Click the Email-only Members tab.

  4. (Optional) To specify an LDAP Search URL for determining membership, click the Add button beneath the "Dynamic criteria for email-only membership" field, then in the Add Dynamic Criterion window:

    5. For instructions on creating an LDAP Search URL, see Defining Dynamic Membership Criteria.

  5. (Optional) To add an individual member to the mailing list, click the Add button beneath the "Members with email only membership" field, then in the Add Email-Only Member window:

  6. Click OK at the bottom of the Edit Entry window if you have finished making changes to this mailing list. Otherwise, click other tabs to continue making changes.
Defining Message-Posting Restrictions

You can impose various kinds of restrictions on messages sent to a mailing list. You can define the set of people allowed to post messages, you can require authentication of senders, you can restrict where posted messages can come from, and you can limit the size of a posted message. Messages that violate the restrictions are rejected.

Note: Although these restrictions are useful for controlling several aspects of the incoming messages for a group, they are not intended to provide high-security access control.

 To define message-posting restrictions for a group:

  1. In Netscape Console, access the Create Group or Edit Entry window, as described in Accessing Mailing Lists.

  2. Click the Mail tab.

  3. Click the Restrictions tab.

  4. (Optional) Define the allowed senders by choosing one of the following options:

    5. If you choose "Anyone in the following list", click Add below the Allowed Senders field to add a sender. The Add Allowed Sender window opens. Enter the email address or distinguished name (DN) of the allowed sender into the field. You can enter the address or DN directly, or you can click Search to open the Search Users and Groups window. Click OK to add the sender to the Allowed Senders field and dismiss the Add Allowed Sender window. Repeat this step for all other allowed senders you want to add.

    For a description of the Search Users and Groups window, see Managing Servers with Netscape Console.

  5. (Optional) Define the sender authentication policy. You can accept the default (senders do not have to be authenticated), or make one of these choices:

    6. If you choose "Only allow messages with the following password," you can set up (or change) the password for message authentication by entering it (twice) into the fields below the button. Then, only messages that include that password will be accepted.

  6. (Optional) Define the allowed sender domains to restrict where senders can post messages from:

    7. Note: A domain automatically includes any of its subdomains. For example, airius.com includes sales.airius.com.

  7. (Optional) Define the maximum permitted message size.

    8. Enter the size (in bytes).

  8. Click OK at the bottom of the Edit Entry window if you have finished making changes to this mailing list. Otherwise, click other tabs to continue making changes.
Defining Message-Rejection Actions

You can configure Messaging Server to execute certain notification actions automatically when messages to your mailing list are rejected because they violate the list's message-posting restrictions.

This feature lets you define the action to be executed upon rejection of a mail message, and to specify group moderators. The actions that the server can take include notification to a moderator and reply to the sender (with or without appending the original message).

 To define message-rejection actions for a mailing list:

  1. In Netscape Console, access the Create Group or Edit Entry window, as described in Accessing Mailing Lists.

  2. Click the Mail tab.

  3. Click the Actions tab.

  4. (Optional) To automatically forward rejected messages to a moderator, check the "Send message to the moderator(s)" box.

    5. When a moderator receives the forwarded message, that person decides how to process the message. (In the case of multiple moderators, processing of the message is determined by the action taken by the first moderator.) Processing might include approving the message and forwarding it back to the list (perhaps with a password) or deleting it. By checking this box you can thus institute a fully-moderated mailing list.

    To specify a moderator:

    For a description of the Search Users and Groups window, see Managing Servers with Netscape Console.

  5. (Optional) To automatically reply to rejected messages, check the "Send the following reply to the sender" box and use one or both of the following options:

    6. Note: If neither the "Send the following reply to the sender" box nor the "Send message to the moderator(s)" box is checked, Messaging Server acts as if the "Send the following reply to the sender" box were checked.

  6. Click OK at the bottom of the Edit Entry window if you have finished making changes to this mailing list. Otherwise, click other tabs to continue making changes.

Interface Reference: Managing Mail Users
This section describes the Netscape Console interface options that let you configure and manage the mail-related components of the user information stored in the LDAP user directory. See Managing Servers With Netscape Console for general information on using Netscape Console to manage Messaging Server and other servers. See Directory Server Administrator's Guide for information on LDAP, the user directory, and other user information stored in the directory.
User Settings Tab
The User Settings tab lets you define a user's Messaging Server host machine and email addresses.

For more information, see also Specifying User Email Addresses.

The User Settings tab has the following elements:

 Messaging Server host name. In this field, enter the name of the Messaging Server that hosts this user's mail services. The host name you enter must be a fully-qualified domain name (FQDN). If the server has multiple host names, this must be the FQDN known to the Messaging Server on that machine.

Primary email address. In this field, enter the primary email address for this user. The primary address is the publicized address, the one displayed by address-book applications. Each user can have only one primary address.

 The address you enter in this field must be a correctly-formatted, valid SMTP address conforming to RFC 821 specifications. Case is not significant; all characters that you enter in this field are forced to lower case.

 To implement host name hiding (the host name in the user's address is shown in the outgoing mail header), do not specify the host name in the Primary email address field, but instead include the host name in an Alternate address.

Alternate Addresses. This field displays a list of this user's alternate email addresses, or aliases to the primary email address. Click the Add or Delete buttons to modify the information in this field.

 Use this feature, for example, to:

 You can add as many alternate addresses to the list as you like, provided each is unique. Click the Add, Edit, or Delete buttons to modify the information in this field.

 Add. Click this button to open a window (see Alternate Addresses Window (Users)) that lets you add an address to the Alternate address field.

Edit. Select an address listed in the Alternate Addresses field and then click this button to change it using the Alternate Addresses window. (The Edit button becomes available only when one or more addresses are listed in the Alternate Addresses field.)

 Delete. Click this button, after selecting an address in the Alternate address field, to remove that address from the user's list of alternate email addresses.

 Enable the following services for the user. These options let you choose the mail server types through which this user sends mail. Check the box next to each server type to be available: IMAP (IMAP4), POP (POP3) and HTTP.

Standard Buttons

OK. Click this button to submit your entries and close the Edit Entry window.
