24 Chapter 1 Mail Service Setup
Overview of Mail Service Tools
The following applications help you set up and manage mail service:
Server Admin: Use to start, stop, configure, maintain, and monitor mail service when
you install Mac OS X Server.
Workgroup Manager: Use to create user accounts for email users and configure each
users mail options.
Terminal: Use for tasks that involve UNIX command-line tools, such as backing up
and restoring the mail database.
Setup Overview
You can have mail service set up and started automatically as part of the Mac OS X
Server installation process. An option for setting up mail service appears in the Setup
Assistant application, which runs automatically at the conclusion of the installation
process. If you select this option, mail service is set up as follows:
SMTP, POP, and IMAP are all active and using standard ports.
Standard authentication methods are used (not Kerberos), with POP and IMAP set for
clear-text passwords (APOP and CRAM MD-5 turned off) and SMTP authentication
turned off.
Mail is delivered only locally (no mail sent to the Internet).
Mail relay is restricted.
If you want to change this basic configuration, or if you haven’t set up your mail
service, these are the major tasks you perform to set up mail service:
Step 1: Before you begin, make a plan
See “Before You Begin” on page 23 for a list of items to think about before you start full-
scale mail service.
Step 2: Set up MX records
If you want users to be able to send and receive mail over the Internet, you should
make sure DNS service is set up with the appropriate MX records for your mail service.
If you have an ISP that provides DNS service to your network, contact the ISP and
have the ISP set up MX records for you. Your ISP will need to know your mail servers
DNS name (such as mail.example.com) and your servers IP address.
If you use Mac OS X Server to provide DNS service, create your own MX records as
described in “Configuring DNS for Mail Service” on page 21.
If you do not set up an MX record for your mail server, your server may still be able to
exchange mail with some other mail servers. Some mail servers will find your mail
server by looking in DNS for your servers A record. (You probably have an A record if
you have a web server set up.)
Note: Your mail users can send mail to each other even if you do not set up MX
records. Local mail service doesn’t require MX records.
