Config:/Mail/
Setting | Explanation | Default / | Example Data | Type Access | R,W,A,D AllowForwarding
| Set to "yes" to allow mail delivery of mail to a host other than
the current host. You would only want to set this to "no" if you are
processing incoming mail only.
| Yes
| Integer | RW
| AllowRelay
| Set to "yes" to allow another mail server to ask your mail server
to relay mail to a specified "closer" destination on its behalf.
| Yes
| Integer | RW
| Bad
| Mail messages without a valid recipient are stored in this file which
is contained within the "MailRoot" directory.
| Note: this setting is currently ignored. bad
| Text | RW
| Boundary
| When a mail storage type of "single file per user" is chosen, the
mail messages are separated by boundary lines within that single file.
This setting allows specification of a boundary line prefix which will not
conflict with any mail message. The standard setting is "From ", where
the space character at the end IS significant.
| From
| Text | RW
| FilePattern
| When a mail storage type of "multiple files per user" is chosen, each
mail message is stored in a separate file. This setting specifies a
wildcard pattern for listing all mail files.
| *.rcv
| Text | RW
| Hook
| Customise how Powerweb handles and delivers mail by writing your
own API hooks to override certain aspects of mail processing.

| List | R
| MailRoot
| All mailboxes are stored within this "MailRoot" directory. When
"single file per user" is chosen, there will be a file for each user,
whereas when "multiple files per user" is chosen, there will be a
sub-directory for each user and multiple files within each directory.
The default "MailRoot" under Unix is "/usr/spool/mail". On other systems,
the default is "/powerweb/mail".

| MaxDeliver
| The maximum number of outgoing mail connections allowed for
delivering mail. If your SMTP Warnings Log
shows many rejected domain name server connections, then your DNS
is not capable of keeping up with PowerWeb and you should reduce
this MaxDeliver setting.
| 64
| Integer | RW
| MaxHops
| The maximum number of hops before a mail item is bounced. Every
mail server that handles a mail item increases the hop count. This
limit prevents infinite mail loops and mail items that are unlikely
to ever reach their final destination.
| 16
| Integer | RW
| QueueInterval
| The time in seconds between each scan of the mail queue. As each
mail item arrives, it is queued for delivery and is dispatched
immediately if an outgoing connection is available. Mail items which
cannot be immediately delivered are held in a pending state until
the next query scan which occurs at the interval specified by this
setting.
| 900
| Integer | RW
| Realm
| Each user mailbox is protected by a user name and password combination.
This setting specifies the name of the database of valid users and their
passwords. Point your browser here to
manage the user list.

| Storage
| Two mailbox storage types are supported: "single file per user", which
is the UNIX standard, and "multiple files per user" which is an alternative
with better concurrency control.
