On my smtp server, I am running MSSQL. IMS uses several
tables to store information about the Domain, the account names (and numbers),
and a table named Mail that holds all the email except emails beyond a
particular length. In addition to setting up the accounts via the regular way,
you may need to manually edit the database.

Subject: Re: [iMS] Adding POP and
SMTP
Hi All,
I have installed the new pop and smtp servers
and they are working fine. It will take a while to get around all the
features, but in the meantime I have a small problem. I have some mail that
was sitting in the pop mailboxes of the old smtp server, what I want to do is
to just insert it directly into the mailboxes of the inFusion server so the
users can download it.
The files are .eml files but they look like a
pretty standard format. I tried simpling renaming them .mail and putting them
into the mail box for the appropriate users, but they didn't download.
Any ideas on how to do this?
Ciao,
Michelle
Davis

it is via a database (MSSQL by preference) or via XML or some other method -
as long as it is possible and relatively painless to control the mail setup
from our CRM - can we do this?

about iMS is that the core templates basically control the entire email
server. This means that controlling domains and users can be something
that is based on a database. FusionMail has only a few tables that are
used to create and manage domains and users. So, all you would need to
do is add the proper records in a table with your CRM.

Also, can people tell me what they think of the following:

accounts would the 100 thread version handle with reasonable ease? Is it
fairly bullet proof?
>> 2. FusionMail - as a webmail package, what do
end users think if it? We get a huge number of problems relating to badly
formatted emails and attachments with our current webmail, we really need
something that is easy to use and can handle seriously malformed email and
attachments.
>> 3. Virus checking - we do some basic virus checking
with our current mail server, but I understand that it is possible to get a
lot more sophisticated checkers with iMS - what is available and how does this
affect the load on the server?

>> Finally - Howie, if we have the 100 thread POST
server installed, can we get a demo licence to run the POP and SMTP
servers? I have a developers licence for the iMS SE - will that allow me
to test the POP and SMTP servers on our development machine?
