Hosting Email for Clients

We are looking to start hosting email for our clients and need to find out more on the capabilities of Mac Server to fulfill that role. Can a single Mail server (Snow Leopard) accomplish this?

for more information on the mail server, you can consult http://www.postfix.org
The pop and imap servers are the open source dovecot. http://www.dovecot.org
I believe there are also some cyrus portions, with regards to authentication.
The Serer Admin application does let you setup a basic mail server with pop and imap too. But you'll want to customize your configs, and that requires editing text config files.

  • How do I use the Certificate Assistant to set up secure email for clients

    I was at first thrilled to find the Certificate Assistant, and now I'm frustrated. I need to have secure, encrypted email for my psychotherapy clients. I thought that if I created my own certificate authority and then issued certificates to my clients, I would be fine. But I can't get this to work. I set up my own authority, but when I try to get a certificate (using a different email account) I can't get it to work. For example, I go to the website created on mac.com and click the "download an invitation" button and then click the download, which opens the Assistant. I fill out the form, but I get an error saying I haven't configured an email account. How do I "configure" an email account? I mean, I use this account all the time; what more configuration does it need?
    Second question. Will anybody with a Windows machine be able to use that webpage? Seems like it's a mac only program, so what good is it in the real world?
    I know I could try to do this with Thawte or whatever, but asking my clients to get trusted so I can use encryption is unreasonable. If not having my own authority (if I could get THAT to work) is there any other way? Are there any good things to read about this? With the federal HIPAA privacy requirements, there are lots of doctors wrestling with this question.

    If you are referring to your "iCloud account", then simply tap "settings / iCloud" - delete the account you are currently logged in with, and add the correct one.

  • Email For Business

    I wanted to purchase a hosted email for my business. I already have purchased
    the domain name and want to use Microsoft exchange hosted solution for creating
    a mail id for my users in the
    organization
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/exchange/microsoft-exchange-online-email-for-business-FX103739072.aspx
    I
    went to the above link and tried to purchase the Rs.240 Plan and entering
    details but its giving me an ID with onmicrosoft.com appended. Example
    ([email protected])
    I want only [email protected] nothing more than
    that, Is that possible or not.

  • How can I make a custom domain email for my client?

    I have an Adobe Muse subscription, with hosting through Adobe, and the Domain name is also with Adobe. How can I make an email for a particular domain for my client so that it will use a "company email" (even if it just redirects to say a gmail or yahoo that is fine) to read "[email protected]?

    Hello,
    As I can see you have a WebBasic Creative Cloud site, I would suggest you to use GoogleApps for your e-mail services.
    Please have a look at the article which would help you achieve this : http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/setting-google-apps-email-business.html
    Hope this helps.

  • I'm looking for a scheduling app that will send reminder emails to clients

    I'm looking for an iPad appointment app that will send reminder emails to clients & synch with my iMac. Suggestions?

    Voicemail is through your carrier and on their equipment.
    It's function and features is set by them, not your phone.

  • How do I schedule an email for future delivery on Mac mail client?

    Unfortunately, you cannot do that with the officially Mac Mail client.

  • I have a mac OS X 10.4.11 and have created a website in iweb08  ... in order to get it to my host site for it to go live I am having difficulty finding a ftp client to get me there. Can anyone suggest what I should do?

    I have a mac OS X 10.4.11 and have created a website in iweb08  ... in order to get it to my host site for it to go live I am having difficulty finding a ftp client to get me there. Can anyone suggest what I should do?

    Check if any of the below have an older version by contacting the author for your 10.4.11:
    http://www.rbrowser.com/
    http://rsug.itd.umich.edu/software/fugu
    http://cyberduck.io/
    http://panic.com/transmit/
    http://fetchsoftworks.com/
    Or use Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal to do command line FTP:
    http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/how-to-use-ftp-from-terminal-to-transfer-m ac-files.navId-400509.html
    Upgrading to 10.6.8 should still give you mostly the same compatibility as 10.4.11. Upgrading to 10.7 and above won't.

  • FMS Licensing - Can I host it for my clients?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm looking at the licensing for FMIS 3, and I see this
    clause:
    2.8.4.
    Prohibited Use. Except as expressly authorized under this
    Agreement, Licensee is prohibited from: (a) using the Software on
    behalf of third parties; (b) renting, leasing, lending or granting
    other rights in the Software including rights on a membership,
    subscription or hosted basis; (c) providing use of the Software in
    a third party outsourcing facility or service, service bureau
    arrangement, or time sharing basis; (d) allowing any person who is
    not an Authorized User from using the Software; and (e) bundling or
    integrating the Software with other products and services.
    Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Interactive
    Server and Streaming Server only, Licensee is permitted to host the
    Software for use by persons other than Authorized Users.
    Does this mean that I am not allowed to develop apps for my
    clients and host them on my server? Do I have to get each of them
    their own servers? Does anyone have any insight into this clause?
    Thank you!
    - Adrian

    hrms. thats interesting. I honestly don't know but if you
    find out let me know. Maybe that explains why hosts out there still
    use FMS2 for hosting apps for their clients with.

  • EPrint does not work with Google Apps for Business (hosted email)

    I have looked up numerous posts, from back into 2011 even, and HP still has not resolved this.
    HP's ePrint does not work with companies using Google Apps for Business (hosted email).
    Our emails come from our domain, but from the servers/DNS of Google, so we wind up getting
    the "550 5.7.1 Command Rehected" error.
    This is a major issue as more and more companies (especially small business owners) are moving away
    from having in-house/Exchange servers, and they are moving toward hosted systems.
    You really need to find a way to stop rejecting emails coming from Google Apps hosted email.
    It's been around 4 years now (looking at previous posts). Why hasn't HP found a resolution to this yet?

    I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP.
    They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number.
    Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact.
    Additionally, keep in mind not to publicly post serial numbers and case details.
    If you are unfamiliar with how the Forum's private message capability works, this post has instructions.

  • Why can't I set up POP/IMAP emails for my Muse website in Business Catalyst? I don't have the option 'use this service for email as well as hosting the website' under Advanced options

    Why can't I set up POP/IMAP emails for my Muse website in Business Catalyst? I don't have the option 'use this service for email as well as hosting the website' under Advanced options.
    Is this due to my Hosting Plan? Appreciate any answers.

    Your site is a CCM site which is on a WebBasics plan (This plan does not provide hosted emails on Business Catalyst).
    If you want to create email addresses on this site, you would need to setup your email server elsewhere and configure the MX records on your site to point to that external mail server.
    If you want to use Business Catalyst's hosted email services you would need to use a WebBasics+ or higher siteplan. To upgrade your CCM free site, Access your site's admin area  -> Site Management -> Upgrade Now -> choose the desired site plan and billing frequency -> Add personal and credit card details -> Submit.
    Please refer this article about setting up email accounts on your BC site: http://docs.businesscatalyst.com/user-manual#!/site-settings/email-users
    For setting up records to point to external mail server, check out http://docs.businesscatalyst.com/user-manual#!/site-settings/email-users/creating-inboxes- for-your-users

  • Internet access for clients

    GuysNeed some assistance on providing internet access at a branch site for clients. Any thoughts and suggestions welcome and appreciatedWe have a number of branch offices connected over ISP managed MPLS network, any-2-any. I am looking at implementing some kind of internet access at the branch offices, either wired or wireless. We manage all the L1 and L2 connectivity at the sites, and the L3 side at our hub offices, of which we have 2, mainly for internet traffic etc, which isnt provided by our MPLS ISPCurrently all internet traffic for all sites goes to our data centre and is routed out through our firewall. Routing isnt an issue here, its more the best way to set this up securely.My initial thoughts were to set aside a whole bunch of ports on a seperate PVLAN that would connect the clients to the network (I am not conerned about the clients talking to each other, as long as they cant reach the local vlans). But the problem may lie at the firewall end, as I will need to specify specific hosts for port 80, 443 traffic only. Would a seperate DHCP scope, of say a /28, allowing 16 hosts only be an idea? Then I wouldnt have to mess around with firewall changes for different hosts all the timeThanks

    Hi,
    How are things going?
    I agree with Darshana. You could connect to Internet by using a router. Router can be configured to enable all users in a network to share a single connection to the Internet. Routing and Remote Access of windows server provides built-in
    routing services that can be used to connect an organization to the Internet through a routed connection to an ISP.
    You can also configure a windows server as a NAT server in your network. A network address translator is an IP router that can translate IP addresses and TCP or UDP port numbers of packets as they are being forwarded. NAT translates private
    IP addresses to external, public IP addresses. Then the computers of LAN can access Internet.
    Best Regards,
    Tina

  • OS X Server take the place of QuickMail and web host email?

    Hi All,
    I have been doing quite a bit of searching in the forums and with google.
    Here is what our situation currently is:
    Cable modem with dynamic IP address. Web hosting account with JaguarPC.com for our Internet email. Clients are all running with Leopard Mail app on either iMacs or MacBooks. We are using Mail app for the Internet messages (sending and receiving). That part works fine.
    G5 tower running OS X Server 10.3 for all of our file serving needs.
    We are using the latest/last version of QuickMail (not very recent!) for all LAN/Intranet messaging. QuickMail used to run fine in the OS 8 & 9 days, but each update of OS X causes it to be more unstable and unreliable.
    What our goal is would be this:
    Same Internet connection (cable modem + dynamic IP). Same web host. BUT, we would like to have our OS X Server (10.3) take the place of QuickMail AND use the Mail app for both the Internet messaging and all of the LAN/Intranet messaging.
    Is this possible? If so, if you would be so kind, could you throw some hints, tips and or links our way to help set this up.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Troy

    Out of the box, no, you can't do this.
    The internal mail is easy - you can do whatever you like on your own network. The issue is in running external mail.
    There are all kinds of issues in running external mail on a dynamic IP address, mostly as a result of spam (many ISPs, including all the big guys will not accept mail from dynamic IP addresses because it's likely spam).
    That's not to say you can't run a mail server per se, but if half your mail doesn't get to the recipient (and you can't predict which ones will), it's hardly viable.
    You do have options, though. First you could configure your mail server to relay all outgoing mail through your ISP. Since you're on their network they are obliged to accept mail from you and they'll forward it to the appropriate domain via one of their mail servers. That takes care of outgoing mail.
    Incoming mail is a whole different issue. On a dynamic IP address there's no way to tell other domains where your mail server is. The typical solution for this is to have some other mail server (on a static address) accept your mail and hold it for your mail server that periodically checks in and retrieves the mail via ETRN.
    Ironically, QuickMail does this very well (it really was one of its strengths). Postfix (the mail server included in Mac OS X Server) can do this, but it's not supported via Server Admin (the GUI used to configure the server), so you'll have to get under the hood and configure it - as well as find an upstream mail server that supports ETRN.
    For postfix, check the Postfix ETRN guide. For the mail server, ask your ISP if they support ETRN (you'll likely need to get to at least second-level support since the first-level folks probably can't even spell it ).

  • GoDaddy-hosted email account won't add to or work on my iPhone 6

    I recently started working for a company that uses a GoDaddy.com-hosted email client/server. I followed GoDaddy's extensive online instructions for adding their account as a new email account to my iPhone 6 but it simply won't work.
    I have made sure to double check the information I've entered for spelling errors.
    Apple support talked me through the issues by phone and we made multiple attempts, but nothing worked. They said perhaps a user on this forum has more experience with GoDaddy specifically, same with GoDaddy
    On one attempt to add the new account, I did get the account added and emails started to load, but none would send. It said it couldn't connect to the server. So, we deleted the account and tried to start over but now it will never progress beyond "verifying"
    I am not using Outlook Exchange or 365, just a regular account
    So, I am back to the point where I need to add this account to my list of email account options and also a solution for sending emails once it does acknowledge.
    This is as far as I have gotten. Do you have any hacks?

    I Have the same issue with my iPhone 6 , but in addition I can't make calls , send sms or access internet ,displaying no service or full signal, it stays like that till I retart my iPhone , i bought it on 22/12/2014 from Vodafone store, I went there and they recieved it , ereased the phone , then installed new software , changed the nano-sim with a new one , I started use it but nothing get better , really don't know what to do , very disappointed and about to throw my brand-new handset.
