    In This Topic

    General Server Configuration Options are located under the properties of the Server name localhost to manage the local server.  These settings are specific to the server that is selected. 

    The General tab specifies a default post office for the server and shows post office bindings to IP addresses.

    Setting

    Description

    Enable Default Post Office

    Specify the default post office for your server. This means that any username that only has the mailbox name will be assumed to be from the default post office.  E.g. the sales@example.com user will only need to use sales to log on with.

    Enable Provisioning

    When provisioning is enabled when a postoffice is created you will be able to have the administration program create any of these items:

    • A webmail site in the format webmail.domain (if Microsoft DNS is configured locally, the DNS entry will also be made)
    • A web administration site  in the format webadmin.domain (if Microsoft DNS is configured locally, the DNS entry will also be made)
    • Exchange ActiveSync configured for the domain
    • Website for the domain (an IIS site will be created and the www.domain will be added if Microsoft DNS configured locally)
