Mail Service Setup

 

Before installing any service, please read carefully the Overview section on this chapter.

Click on the GWSetup icon , choose the MAIL service and click the Install Services button.

The Gate-and-Way MAIL setup will be launched on a terminal window.

After a few steps, it will create a special e-mail account, named gate-and-way. This account will contain:

  1. mail shared between the network users (Shared Mail Folders)

  2. e-mail fetched from external mail boxes over the internet (if configured to store e-mail here instead of in a local e-mail account)

  3. e-mail authomatically sent by the installed services (logs , warnings etc.)

  4. incoming faxes, fax usage reports and malfunction warnings (if the fax service is installed and configured not to send them to a specific user)

You will be required to insert a password for this special account

New password: Enter_your_password
Retype new password: Enter_your_password

All done !. Installation of mail server has been completed.
Other local e-mail accounts can be created through the Gate-and-Way Control Panel (GWCP), as shown in Chapter 3 in this manual.
Once your system has been restarted, your mailboxes will be ready to send and receive e-mail, then you can configure your email clients as shown in chapter 4 on this manual.
