The Web templates provided are for your convenience as samples of how the
functions can be used. It is not important for the samples to be pretty.
(Actually they're nicer in appearance than most sample templates from other
vendors I've seen) You are expected to create for yourself, what you believe
to be good-looking, functional templates.
Any alterable Web templates have only recently been available (12 months),
due to requests by the older members of this list. We are making progress
with the Ipswitch developers, and happy about it.
Let's focus on the primary product here, and that is a highly configurable,
reliable mail server at a reasonable price. If you've tested the application
and it is not living up to your expectations, then fine. Move on until you
can find what you believe to be to your liking for the money. Flaming
Ipswitch serves no productive purpose.
