What are MailWall Hosted Mailbox (POP3 and IMAP4) Functions?

PRODUCT NOTE: Hosted mailboxes may have undesirable and unpredictable effects on a domain with Active Directory synchronisation enabled. It is not recommended or supported to use these features together.

Understanding Hosted Mailboxes

  • MailWall can be configured to manage email addresses for a domain name and provide storage for customer mailboxes. Mailboxes are made available via compatible POP3 and IMAP4 email clients such as Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird and Microsoft Entourage.
  • Hosted mailboxes can remove the requirement for an email server to be located on the customer's premises as their email clients will directly connect MailWall over the Internet.
  • In addition, hosted mailboxes are compatible with many mobile email devices and platforms.
  • As standard, MailWall supports hosted mailboxes whereby email is accepted for pre-configured email addresses and delivered to associated mailboxes.
  • The alternative to hosted mailboxes is an SMTP feed. If you are unsure which option is best for you, please contact a MailWall professional for assistance.
  • By default, all hosted email domains will have the following un-deletable email addresses pre-configured: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it., This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it., This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. These email addresses will be associated with the default mailbox. This can be changed via the forwarding options on Mail Manager.
