Create Messaging Server
The Messaging Server object
represents a physical network server that provides Internet
messaging services to users on the network. A NIMS system can have
one or more messaging servers.
When there is only one messaging
server in a NIMS system, it is termed a standalone configuration.
All NIMS Agent objects are created in the same Messaging Server
object. In a standalone configuration, the Messaging Server object
can be created in the same container where User objects are
located, although it is usually created in the Internet Services
container along with other NIMS objects.
When there are multiple messaging
servers in a NIMS system, it is termed a distributed
configuration. Each Messaging Server object can contain various
combinations of NIMS Agent objects, depending on how you want to
organize the various NIMS functions. In a distributed
configuration, the Messaging Server objects are usually created in
the Internet Services container.
Fill in the messaging server fields
> click Apply to create the Messaging Server object. Click
the new Messaging Server object to define additional object
properties.
Name
Type a unique name for the Messaging Server object.
Host
Specify the full context name of the server that will serve as a
NIMS messaging server, for example, server_name.com or
fs1.ISandT.
Postmaster
Specify the full context name of the user assigned to manage the
messaging server. The Postmaster receives email notifications
about problems with the messaging server and requires more rights
than the typical user to correct these problems.
Official Domain
Specify the Internet domain serviced by the messaging server
(such as company_name.com or isp.net).
