Email Server LANMailServer

Specifying external mailboxes is only necessary if the email account owner also has external email accounts with an email provider on the internet. LANMailServer retrieves emails from the external mailboxes and assigns them to the local email account. This allows the user to receive, read, reply to, and send emails locally. LANMailServer supports email accounts that conform to the POP3/IMAP4 standard, additionally supporting Hotmail and AOL accounts.

If emails from external mailboxes are to be integrated into multiple local email accounts, the global external mailboxes should be used.

In the Shareware version, a maximum of 2 external email accounts can be created for each local email account.

Import Button for Email Accounts

Using the import wizard, you can import email accounts from Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft Outlook Express on the local computer. AOL mailboxes cannot be imported.

Important

• LANMailServer cannot read passwords for email accounts; you must enter these passwords in the import wizard.
• For importing from Outlook, LANMailServer must be used as the 32-bit version if Outlook is installed as a 32-bit version, otherwise use the 64-bit version.

Setting Up External Email Accounts

You can add, modify, and delete external email accounts. All accounts that are added and checked will be monitored by LANMailServer for incoming new emails. If emails are present, they will be retrieved, assigned to the local email account, and then deleted from the external email account.

Add, Modify, and Delete Email Accounts

Click "Add" to include a new external email account in the software. To modify an email account, select the email account from the list and click "Modify." To delete an account, select the account and then click "Delete."
