Normal users can setup account features, like a forwarding address, holiday or plan message. They can also change their password. The status of their POP account can be checked, giving them the number of unread messages, and a list of mail messages retained in their POP account. Clicking on the list will display the message or instruct the web browser to mail the sender. The POP account can also be cleared. Domain administrators are given the rights to administer users in their own domain.This includes the rights to change existing user accounts - resetting passwords, changing aliases; disabling or deleting accounts. New users can be added to their domain. Administators are given additional features. These include rights to ammend users in all domains, maintain logging and alert events, and to set system level NT Mail options. Logging can be done at the user level or at the action level. Every user action is able to be logged. In addition a single line email can be sent to a designated account for each event.
