The MailStore Gateway Admin Console is the primary tool for administrators to manage mailboxes in MailStore Gateway.
Create Mailbox
- Login to the Admin Console.
- Click on Create Mailbox
- Type a name in the Name field, i.e. Office 365 Journal
- Optional: Enter a description that helps to identify the purpose of the mailbox to be created, i.e. Target for journal emails from Office 365 domain example.com
- Click OK
- A strong, random password is generated and displayed. Make sure to store the password in a safe place. The password is not stored in MailStore Gateware and it represents the passphrase needed to decrypt the content of the mailbox. If the password is lost, there is no way to ever access emails that are still in the mailbox.
- Carefully read the warning, and afterwards tick the checkbox I've read and understood the above warning.
- Click OK to finish the mailbox creation.
Tip: For MailStore Server customers we recommend to use an enterprise grade password manager to store such critical passwords. For MSPs using MailStore Service Provider Edition we do not recommend to store these passwords but instead ensure that when provifing them them to customers, add a note about the importance of keeping the password safe.
Edit Mailbox
- Login to the Admin Console.
- Select a mailbox from the table.
- Click Edit Mailbox.
- The following mailbox properties can be changed:
- Name
