E-mail Server
The E-mail Server settings are located under Nas Management->E-mail Server.
Getting started
In order to use the e-mail server, you must have a domain name or have registered with a DDNS service provider. E-mail requires a domain name and will not work with just an IP address. Enable the e-mail server by selecting the ‘Enable’ radio button. Enter your domain name in ‘Mail Domain Name’. For example, myhomedomain.com is a valid name. Do not enter the ‘www’ usually associated with domain names. If you have a DDNS name, for example, myname.dyndns.org, you can enter it here in as shown also. You should limit the maximum size a mailbox under the quota field and the size of each e-mail in the following field. Default settings are ‘0’ for unlimited.
E-mail names
After applying the settings, your e-mail accounts are now active. They are based on your user names that are created under user management. For example, if ‘teacher’ is a user on the appliance, and ‘school.com’ is the domain name, the e-mail address for ‘teacher’ is now ‘teacher@school.com’. DDNS e-mail addresses work in a similar manner. For example, if ‘teacher’ is the user on the appliance and the domain name (DDNS) is ‘school.dyndns.org’, then the e-mail address would then be ‘teacher@school.dyndns.org’.
Sending and receiving e-mail
You can use any POP e-mail type program to retrieve and send your e-mails.
