Configuration Tool setup

The following web browsers in their respective current version are supported by the Management Console:

  • The configuration tool shortcut is located on the desktop of your machine and is named "MailStore Gateway". Double-click to open that tool.
  • Configure the "E-Mail Domain" by entering your (MailStore Gateway domain) which is different than your primary domain.
    • If the primary domain is mytdomain.com and MailStore Gateway should receive emails, a DNS record like msgw.example.com needs to be created in the DNS zone mytdomain.com. The record must point to a public IP address on which MailStore Gateway is reachable. In MailStore Gateway the value of E-Mail Domain would be set to msgw.mytdomain.com. If MailStore Gateway is located behind a NAT router or firewall, additional configuration may be needed. Refer to Firewall Configuration for further details.
  • In the "Certificate" field, click the box with the three dots and choose "Create Self-Signed Certificate" and click "OK". This will create a self-signed certificate using the FQDN of the MailStore Gateway machine which is the default configuration.
  • Leave the Management-console port set to the default of 8450 and the Let's Encrypt Port set to 80 and then click "Start Service".
