How do I enable Hosted Mailboxes?

Hosted mailboxes are configured via (Mail Manager - Delivery Options) on the MailWall dashboard.

By default, MailWall is configured to operate using hosted mailboxes.

Please Read First: Prior to configuring hosted mailboxes, please review the following caveats regarding the procedure:

  • All required email addresses and users must be configured within MailWall prior to enabling hosted mailboxes
  • Depending on your account plan, hosted email may result in increased fees related to mailbox storage, please consult with your account manager if you are unsure of any costs involved.
  • Hosted mailboxes may have undesirable and unpredictable effects on a domain with Active Directory synchronisation enabled. It is not recommended to use these features together.

If any of these caveats is applicable to you, please consult with a MailWall professional prior to continuing with the procedure.

On the MailWall dashboard:

1. Select the domain name from the top navigation bar,

Then click on Mail Manager - Delivery Options section from the side menu.

2. Change 'SMTP Forwarding' to No

3. Click 'Change'

You have now configured hosted mailboxes.
