7.2 Using the POP and IMAP Mailbox Servers Web-Based Configuration Utility

This section describes how to use the web-based POP and IMAP mailbox servers configuration utility to configure mailbox servers for a PMDF-MTA system. This utility can be used to generate an initial mailbox servers configuration, or it can be used to generate a new mailbox servers configuration of an existing PMDF installation.

With JavaScript enabled, point your browser (using Netscape version 3.0 or later, or Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4.0 or later) to


http://localhost:7633/ 
where localhost is the TCP/IP name of your PMDF system. At this point, you should see a screen similar to the one shown in Figure 8-1. Select the "Configuration Utilities" link. At this point, you should see a screen similar to the one shown in Figure 8-2.

If your last use of the web-based PMDF configuration utility was to configure PMDF-MTA, and your PMDF-MTA configuration has not been modified manually since then, you can load your prior PMDF-MTA configuration session before you begin your mailbox servers configuration. If you want to redo your PMDF-MTA configuration, you can start by doing so now. Otherwise, you can configure just the mailbox servers during this configuration session. (Both options will minimize the number of checklist tasks you will need to do later.)

Note

If you to just configure the mailbox servers, you will have to do the checklist tasks to integrate your mailbox server configuration into your main PMDF-MTA configuration.

Click on the "Configure" button for IMAP/POP Servers to begin the configuration. (See Section 8.2 for a sample configuration session.)
