Blue Mail server 2: Setup email users and aliases

Standard

 

Create new email address in your domain

 

  1. Open browser at: https://mailboxes.blue.net.au:10000 and enter your WEBMIN username and password
  2. Click on “Edit Mail and FTP Users”
    (Note: Even though the link says FTP users this server has no FTP capabilities)
     

  3. Click on “Add user to this server”
  4. Fill in the required details and click the “Create” button:

    • Advise the user of their username and password.
    • This username (= email address) and password can be either used in our webmail interface – http://webmail.blue.net.au – or in your own email program with POP3, SMTP and IMAP (please refer to your instructions for your specific email program to set this up).
    • The incoming mail server is always pop3.blue.net.au and the outgoing mail server is always smtp.blue.net.au. You need to authenticate to our outgoing email server, if you are not using a Blue Net internet connection. See also: General settings for Blue Net services

 

Setup an email alias in your domain

An email alias is a secondary email address for your mailbox. The mailbox can either be here on our server or it can be any other valid email address.

 

  1. Once logged in (as described above) go to “Edit Email Aliases”

  2. Click on “Add an alias to this domain”

  3. Fill in the details as required and click on the “Create” button.
    (Note: the other options available here should be self explanatory)

  4. After you performed the action in this example email addressed to example2@example.com will be delivered to example@example.com. The user example@example.com does not need to set up anything.
