{{Code|mailx -s Welcome user@foo.com < /var/hda/web-apps/webmail/html/patch/welcome.txt}}
* These are the steps needed to add an additional mail domain (does not include any DNS MX records). Use [http://www.amahi.org/apps/phpmyadmin phpMyAdmin] to modify the ''mail'' database and substitute your information accordingly.
** # Creating a mail domain e.g. :**#* ''domain'' is: <u>bar.com</u>**#* ''server'' is: <u>foo.bar.com</u>**#* ''admin user'' is: <u>me@bar.com</u>** # In the mail mySQL database tables:**#* ''domain'': add <u>bar.com</u>**#* ''transport'': add <u>bar.com</u>**#* ''user'': add <u>me@bar.com</u>**#* ''forward'': add <u>postmaster@bar.com</u>, and <u>abuse@bar.com</u> to <u>me@bar.com</u>** # Run the command line below to set up the /home/vmail/bar.com/me mail files:
{{Code|mailx -s Welcome me@bar.com < /var/hda/web-apps/webmail/html/patch/welcome.txt}}
* For every domain supported, the following either need to be added as users or forwarded. Without them a site MAY end up on various spam block lists:
postmaster@foo.com
abuse@foo.com
* Some ISPs block port 25 for mail. Thus a remote user would be able to retrieve mail, but not send mail. To accommodate this, port 587 is used by email clients for sending mail.
** # To enable port 587, edit /etc/postfix/master.cf and uncomment the line starting with "# submission"** # Reload postfix
* Add capability to fetch Yahoo mail:
# Download the latest [http://fetchyahoo.twizzler.org/ FetchYahoo]
