Accessing Mail
Address Groups
This option is only useful if you already have names in your address book. Do so first if you wish
to use this.
You will start out with no groups, to add a new group click
Add New Members
.
Now search for an address to add to a new group or click
List All
to list your complete address
book.
Select any amount of addresses you wish to add.
Enter a group name and press
Add
. If you already have a group specified, you can instead add it
to that existing group.
Back on the main page, you can modify the name, delete the group, or list all members for it. The
selection
List All Groups
gets you back to this main page.
SpamAssassin Configuration
This is where you can configure the settings to customize your level of anti-spam and anti-virus
protection. The default configuration will work great for most people, but you may decide to
investigate the possibility of fine-tuning your options. This is an extensive package called
SpamAssassin, which has a manual of its own. You can get more information about it at
http://www.spamassassin.org.
There is one feature of note that you need to know about for the moment. You have the ability to
add e-mail addresses to either a whitelist, which lets any messages from that address through, or
to a blacklist, which automatically blocks all messages from that address.
NewMail Options
This section allows you to set it up so that you get a notification sound when new email comes
into your box so that you don't have to keep clicking back to the screen to check. Each option is
explained on that page, click
Submit
when you are done.
Logging Out
To log out, simply press
Log Out
and then you can go back to the
Login
page if you wish or exit
the site.
