GWCP External Mail tab

 

Using this tab you can choose which external mailboxes must be fetched by your Gate-and-Way server.
External mail stored in these mailboxes will be automatically downloaded by Gate-and-Way and stored inside local mailboxes, so local users can retrieve it together with internal mail and faxes without configuring their e-mail clients.

In the top grid you have to insert your ISP's data and choose the local mailbox which has to store the mail.
Don't worry about different ISP tecnologies because Gate-and-Way automatically recognizes IMAP, POP3 and POP2 mailboxes.

Clicking on the Apply Updates button you will save your grid's data while clicking on the Revert Updates button you will cancel your changes.

Under the Status box there is a spinedit. Here you can set how often the external mailboxes have to be fetched (in minutes). If you set 0 (zero) here it means that the mailboxes have to be fetched only once, pressing the Start Fetching button.

The Stop Fetching button will be enabled only if you clicked on Start Fetching after setting a timer in the spinedit.

If the AutoFetch checkbox is checked, the external mailboxes will be automatically fetched each time the GWCP is started, so, if you have a permanent internet connection, you have only to start GWCP to automatically have your external mailboxes fetched.
This means that you probably will also have the AutoDial chechbox enabled in the Internet tab, or you will have an external Internet router (and firewall).
