18 Chapter 1 Mail Service Setup

Step 7: Set up accounts for mail users

Each person who wants mail service must have a user account in a directory domain

accessible by your mail service. The short name of the user account is the mail account

name and is used to form the user’s mail address. In addition, each user account has

settings that determine how your mail service handles mail for the user account. You

can configure a user’s mail settings when you create the user’s account, and you can

change an existing user’s mail settings at any time. For instructions, see “Supporting

Mail Users” on page 24, and “Configuring Email Client Software” on page 25

Step 8: Create a postmaster account (optional, but advised)

You need to create a user account named “postmaster.” The mail service may send

reports to the postmaster account. When you create the postmaster account, make

sure mail service is enabled for it. For convenience, you can set up forwarding of the

postmaster’s mail to another mail account that you check regularly. Other common

postmaster accounts are named “abuse” (used to report abuses of your mail service)

and “spam” (used to report unsolicited commercial email abuses by your users). The

user management guide tells you how to create user accounts.

Step 9: Start mail service

Before starting mail service, make sure the server computer shows the correct day,

time, time zone, and daylight-saving settings in the Date & Time pane of System

Preferences. Mail service uses this information to timestamp each message. An

incorrect timestamp may cause other mail servers to handle a message incorrectly.

Also, make sure you’ve enabled one or more of the mail service protocols (SMTP, POP,

or IMAP) in the Settings pane.

Once you’ve verified this information, you can start mail service. If you selected the

Server Assistant option to have mail service started automatically, stop mail service

now, and then start it again for your changes to take effect. For detailed instructions,

see “Starting and Stopping Mail Service” on page 33.

Step 10: Set up each user’s mail client software

After you set up mail service on your server, mail users must configure their mail client

software for your mail service. For details about the facts that users need when

configuring their mail client software, see “Supporting Mail Users” on page 24.
