Mail Groups for Edu use

A mail group enables related mailslots to be grouped together logically with the additional benefit of group accounting facilities which act on all mailslots in each group.

Group accounting enables a wide range of mailbox parameters, quantity and volume of mail stored for example, to be controlled and reported at regular intervals.

Mail Group - Maintenance

This tab, which appears on the Mail Group Properties dialog configures various hard disk space saving methods available.  These space saving methods are only executed at the scheduled maintenance period.

Automatically Compress Mailboxes

Compressing mailboxes greatly reduces hard drive usage but may adversely affect server performance.

Automatically Remove Deleted Items

Items deleted in IMAP are not removed from the server unless a client request is made to permanently remove the messages OR this option is enabled and the maintenance period is reached.

Perform these actions at ... day intervals

This is the most simple scheduling available for this option.  The selected maintenance options will be executed within the selected interval of days.

Configure System-Wide Maintenance Periods

Clicking this button will bring up a re-occurring weekly schedule table.  From the schedule displayed, click and highlight the day/time to perform the selected maintenance tasks.



Configuration Tip

The Mail Group Properties dialog is used to configure mail groups in Mailtraq and can be accessed by choosing File | New | Mail Group from the console menu or by choosing Properties from the context menu of any mail group in the console. .

A mail group enables related mailslots to be grouped together logically with the additional benefit of group accounting facilities which act on all mailslots in each group. Group accounting enables a wide range of mailbox parameters, quantity and volume of mail stored for example, to be controlled and reported at regular intervals.

The hierarchical nature of mail groups allows mail groups to be organised into major groups and sub groups. Sub groups optionally inherit the mailbox accounting settings of their parent group.
