The Create Domain page appears.

Note: All fields are greyed out until you enter complete the Domain field and press the Enter key.

 

FieldObligation
Basic Settings 
DomainSpecify the name of the new domain. This field is mandatory. The domain name can be up to 160 characters.
Stats MailoutEnter the addresses to which you want to send daily snapshots of account usage. Separate each address with a comma.
FilterMXThe MX Host address is the target mailserver to which filtered spam and virus-free email will be delivered. This can be either a hostname or IP address, and it must include the inbound port that accepts connections (usually port 25). For example, mail.mymailserver.com:25.
User LimitEnter the maximum number of accounts of any type (regular mailbox, forward, and filter) that can be created in the domain.
Alias LimitEnter the maximum number of aliases that can be created in the domain.
AliasesEnter any domain aliases. Be sure to enter each domain alias on a separate line.

Note: You must set a Domain Alias DNS record.
Webmail Domain AliasWhen this box is checked, mailbox users will be able to use domain aliases in the From field of outgoing messages.
Defaults For New Users 
LanguageFrom the drop-down list, choose the default language for this domain. This language automatically applies to new mailboxes created in this domain, unless you specify a different language for a particular mailbox. This field is optional.
TimezoneFrom the drop-down list, choose the default time zone for this domain. This time zone automatically applies to new mailboxes created in this domain, unless you specify a different time zone for a particular mailbox. This field is optional.
Quota (MB)Enter the default maximum size (in Megabytes) for new user accounts that are created.
Max Quota (MB)The maximum (in Megabytes) that can be assigned to any user account.
Services – Receive, IMAP4, POP3, Send, Webmail, Webmail SendThe default settings for new users in this domain for various services. The services are:
  • Receive—Whether the user can receive email.
  • IMAP4—Whether the user can connect with an IMAP4 client.
  • pop3—Whether the user can connect with a client.
  • Send—Whether the user can send email.
  • Webmail—Whether the user can receive mail through Webmail.
  • Webmail Send—Whether the user can send mail through Webmail.
For each of the available services, click a radio button to set the service to one of the following options:
  • enabled—The service is available.
  • disabled—The service is not available.
  • suspended—The service is not currently available, and can only be re-enabled by an administrator at a level equal to or higher than the one who suspended the user.
    The most common reason for suspension is an AUP violation for exceeding the spam threshold that was set by the service provider.
Note: The default settings are inherited from the company settings, but you can change any of the settings for individual domains.
Inheritable For Users 
BrandFrom the drop-down list, choose the brand that will apply to the new domain. This field defaults to the Company brand. Changing the selection changes the branding for new domains.
Password EncodingFrom the drop-down list choose the type of encryption that you want to use to encode user passwords. If this value is not set at the domain level, the value is inherited from the level above, that is, the domain uses the company value.

Note: Only company admins are allowed to change this setting; other admin levels can view the setting but cannot change it.
Spam FolderSpecify the name of the folder to which all spam messages will be delivered. The default is Spam.
Spam LevelFrom the drop-down list, choose the level of aggressiveness for spam filtering. Choosing a level other than Normal causes the filtering engine to be more aggressive in labeling mail as spam.
Spam TagSpecify the tag that is appended to the Subject line of all spam messages.
Spam HeaderSpecify the tag that will be assigned to the header of spam messages. The format must begin with a capital letter but can be followed by anything, for example, X-Spam: Spam detected. This must be set to an email header valid format.
SMTP LimitThe maximum number of messages that a user can send in a 24 hour period.

  • passthrough—Allow spam messages to be delivered to the Reseller's designated mailserver.
  • quarantine—Do not deliver spam messages to the Reseller's server.
