The Imail online knowledge base has the info below, which
pretty much matches the issue I have. My IMail is hosted on version
5.0. My questions are:
1) Can this setting be changed from the web interface, or must
a sysadm of the NT box make the change locally?
2) What are the security implications of making this
change? (i.e. Enable "Ignore source address in security
check")
3) Is the setting global to all IMail accounts on that NT box,
or is it specific to a particulary IP/web?
Thanks,
Steven

Question/Problem: I have users who use AOL and the Web
Messaging Interface. They cannot connect to my IMail server to see their
messages. Can you tell me why this happens and how to fix
it?
Answer/Solution: Due to the methods AOL uses (IP
addresses and other security issues) and how IMail checks the request for data
from the remote user for the Web Messaging, they are being denied access.
However we do have a method for resolving this.
In IMail Administrator | localhost | Web Messaging
Server enable this option: "Ignore source address in security check". (In IMail
5.0 run Web Messaging Manager.)
Stop and restart the service.
Stop and restart the service.
