Setup globale external email accounts

Global external mailboxes can be used to distribute emails from one or more external mailboxes to the local mailboxes in LANMailServer.

Click on "Global External Mailboxes..." under Configuration to create, modify, or delete new external mailboxes.

To create a new email account, click "Add." To modify an existing account, select the email account from the list and click "Modify." To delete an email account, select the account and click "Delete."

Inbox Tab

Add the respective mailbox:

Add a POP3 Account
Add an IMAP Account

Email Distribution Tab

Distribute Emails to Local Mailboxes Based on the Local Part of the To Email Address

Choose this option to distribute emails to local mailboxes based on the local part of the "To" email address.

For example, if local mailboxes "info" and "webmaster" exist, emails from the external mailbox addressed to info@ will be assigned to the local mailbox "info," and emails addressed to webmaster@ will be assigned to the local mailbox "webmaster."

If no local mailbox exists for the local part of the "To" email address, the emails will be assigned to the selected local mailbox.

Always Distribute Emails to These Local Mailboxes

Choose this option to assign all emails from the external mailbox to the selected local mailboxes.

Note: If you delete local mailboxes that were specified on the Email Distribution tab, the retrieval of the external mailbox will no longer be performed. You must first revisit the settings of the external mailbox, check the configuration, and save it.
