===Global IMAP and POP Settings===
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
IMAP and POP access can be enabled as a global setting or server setting.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
With POP3 (Post Office Protocol) users can retrieve their mail stored on the Zimbra server and download new mail to their computer. The user’s POP configuration determines if messages are deleted from the Zimbra server.
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
With Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP), users can access their mail from any computer as the mail is stored on the Zimbra server.
 
</div><div class="a_0033Heading">
 
====Configuring IMAP and POP Proxy Server====
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
Setting up a IMAP/POP proxy server is useful for larger ZCS sites that want to present a single hostname for POP/IMAP. Enabling IMAP/POP proxy servers allows mail retrieval for a domain to be split across multiple Zimbra servers on an account basis.
 
</div><div class="Notice">
 
<span class="Bold">Note: </span>An IMAP/POP proxy server should not be configured for ZCS running on a single server.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
The IMAP/POP Proxy server feature can be enabled when ZCS is installed or any time from the administration console. Both SSL and non-SSL connections can be configured.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
When an IMAP or POP user enters his email address and password, the IMAP/POP proxy server searches the LDAP directory server to find which Zimbra server host the account is created on and then passes the authentication through to the appropriate mailbox server. The proxy server does not contain any data.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
When the proxy server is configured, the default POP and IMAP ports are configured for the proxy server. ZCS designates the Zimbra server port numbers. These port numbers cannot be changed. When you enable a proxy server on any Zimbra server, servers that do not have the proxy server enabled must be configured with appropriate ''server ''port number listed below.
 
</div>
 
* IMAP Proxy port - 143
* IMAP SSL proxy port - 993
* POP proxy port - 110
* POP SSL proxy port 995
* IMAP server port - 7143
* IMAP SSL server port - 7993
* POP server port - 7110
* POP SSL server port - 7995
 
===Anti-Spam Settings===
<div class="Body">
 
Anti-spam protection can be enabled for each server when the Zimbra software is installed. The following options are configured:

<div class="Bulleted1_inner">Subject prefix field is blank. The prefix entered in this field is added to the subject line for messages tagged as spam. </div>
|}
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
When a message is tagged as spam, the message is delivered to the recipient’s Junk folder. Users can view the number of unread messages that are in their Junk folder and can open the Junk folder to review the messages marked as spam. If you have the anti-spam training filters enabled, when they add or remove messages in the Junk folder, their action helps train the spam filter. See “Anti-Spam Protection” .
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
RBL (Real time black-hole lists) can be turned on or off in SpamAssassin from the Zimbra CLI. See “To turn RBL on”.

|}
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
During ZCS installation, the administrator notification address for anti-virus alerts is configured. The default is to set up the admin account to receive the notification. When a virus has been found, a notification is automatically sent to that address.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
By default, the Zimbra MTA checks every two hours for any new anti-virus updates from ClamAV. The frequency can be set between 1 and 24 hours.
 
</div><div class="Notice">
 
<span class="Bold">Note: </span>Updates are obtained via HTTP from the ClamAV website.

===Authentication Modes===
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
Authentication is the process of identifying a user or a server to the directory server and granting access to legitimate users based on user name and password information provided when users log in. Zimbra Collaboration Suite offers the following three authentication mechanisms:
 
</div><div class="Bulleted1_outer" style="margin-left: 0pt">

<div class="Bulleted1_inner">'''External Active Directory'''. The user name and password is the authentication information supplied to the Active Directory server. You identify the Active Directory domain name and URL.</div>
|}
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
On the administration console, you use an authentication wizard to configure the authentication settings on your domain.
 
</div><div class="a_0032Heading">
 
===Virtual Hosts===
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
Virtual hosting allows you to host more than one domain name on a server. When you create a virtual host, users can log in without have to specify the domain name as part of their user name.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
Virtual hosts are entered on the '''Domains>Virtual Hosts''' tab on the administrator’s console. The virtual host requires a valid DNS configuration with an A record.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
When users log in, they enter the virtual host name in the browser. For example,<span class="attribute"> https://mail.company.com</span>. When the Zimbra logon screen displays, users enter only their user name and password. The authentication request searches for a domain with that virtual host name. When the virtual host is found, the authentication is completed against that domain.
 
</div><div class="a_0032Heading">
 
===Documents===
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
Zimbra Documents is a document sharing and collaboration application. Users can create, organize, and share web documents. Images, spreadsheets, and other rich web content objects can be embedded into Documents via the AJAX Linking and Embedding (ALE) specification.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
The Documents application consists of a Global Documents account which holds the templates, one optional domain Documents account per domain, and Documents Wikis folders for individual accounts. For end users, Documents is enabled from the COS or for individual accounts.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
The Global Documents account is automatically created when ZCS is installed. One domain Documents account can be created per domain. The domain Documents wiki Notebook folder can be used to collect, organize, and share information with your users. For the documents folder, you can set access for the following: all users in your domain, all users in the ZCS environment, public view-only, individual user, and distribution lists for groups. You can change the access permissions at any time from the administration console.
 
</div><div class="a_0031Heading">
 
==Managing Servers==
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
A server is a machine that has one or more of the Zimbra service packages installed. During the installation, the Zimbra server is automatically registered on the LDAP server.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
You can view the current status of all the servers that are configured with Zimbra software, and you can edit or delete existing server records. You cannot add servers directly to LDAP. The Zimbra Installation program must be used to add new servers because the installer packages are designed to register the new host at the time of installation.

===Volume Settings===
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
The Volume tab can be used to manage storage volumes on your Zimbra Mailbox server. When Zimbra Collaboration Suite is installed, one index volume and one message volume are configured on each mailbox server. You can add new volumes, set the volume type, and set the compression threshold
 
</div><div class="a_0033Heading">
 
====Index Volume====
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
Each Zimbra mailbox server is configured with one current index volume. Each mailbox is assigned to a permanent index directory on the current index volume. When an account is created, the current index volume is automatically defined for the account. You cannot change which index volume the account is assigned.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
As volumes become full, you can create a new current index volume for new accounts. When a new current index volume is added, the older index volume is no longer assigned new accounts.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
Index volumes not marked current are still actively in use as the index volumes for accounts assigned to them. Any index volume that is referenced by a mailbox as it's index volume cannot be deleted.
 
</div><div class="a_0033Heading">
 
====Message Volume====
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
When a new message is delivered or created, the message is saved in the current message volume. Additional message volumes can be created, but only one is configured as the current volume where new messages are stored. When the volume is full, you can configure a new current message volume. The current message volume receives all new messages. New messages are never stored in the previous volume.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
A current volume cannot be deleted. and message volumes that have messages referencing the volume cannot be deleted.
 
</div><div class="a_0033Heading">
 
====Scheduling HSM Sessions====
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
(Network Edition only)HSM can be configured for secondary storage volumes for older messages. Messages and attachments are moved from a primary volume to the current secondary volume based on the age of the message. Users are not aware of any change and do not see any noticeable difference when opening an older message that has been moved.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
To manage your email storage resources, you can implement a different HSM policy for each mailbox server. The message age threshold for HSM is set globally on the HSM tab or for individual servers from the Server, Volume tab. The default is 30 days. The thresholds configured on individual servers override the threshold configured as the global setting.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
Sessions to move messages to the secondary volume are scheduled in your cron table. From the administration console, when you select and server, you can manually start a session, monitor sessions, and abort sessions that are in progress from the Volumes tab.
 
</div><div class="a_0031Heading">
 
==Managing User Accounts==
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
Managing accounts in the Zimbra system allows you to create accounts and change features easily from the administration console or by using the <span class="Code">zmprov</span> command-line tool described in Appendix A.

===Using Search===
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
Search is used to quickly locate individual accounts, aliases, distribution lists, and resources on the LDAP server. Search by display name, first name, last name, the first part of the email address, alias, or delivery address. If you do not know the complete name, you can enter a partial name. Partial names can result in a list that has the partial name string anywhere in the information.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
You can also use the Zimbra mailbox ID number to search for an account. To return a search from a mailbox ID, the complete ID string must be entered in the search.
 
</div><div class="a_0032Heading">
 
===Adding user accounts===

Creating an account sets up the appropriate entries on the Zimbra LDAP directory server. When the end-user logs in for the first time or when an email is delivered to the user’s account, the mailbox is created on the mailbox server.
 
</div><div class="a_0033Heading">
 
====Batch Provisioning from the CLI Utility====
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
For provisioning many accounts at once, you create a formatted text file with the user names. This file runs through a script, using the CLI command, <span class="Code">zmprov</span>. The <span class="Code">zmprov</span> utility provisions one account at a time.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
Create a text file with the list of the accounts you want to add. Each account should be typed in the format of ca (Create Account), email address, empty password. For example,<span class="Code"> ca name@company.com ‘’</span>''’''
 
</div><div class="Notice">
 
<span class="Bold">Note: </span>In this example, the empty single quote indicates that there is no local password.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
When the text file includes all the names to provision, log on to the Zimbra server and type the CLI command
 
</div><div class="Body" style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; margin-bottom: 6.0pt; margin-top: 6.0pt; text-transform: none; vertical-align: baseline">'''<font color="#000000"> <span class="Code">zmprov <accounts.txt</span> </font>'''</div><div class="Body">
 
Each of the names listed in the text file will be provisioned.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
See Appendix A, for more zmprov commands.
 
</div><div class="a_0032Heading">
 
===Manage Aliases===
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
An email alias is an email address that redirects all mail to a specified mail account. An alias is not an email account. Each account can have unlimited numbers of aliases.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
When you select Aliases from the Manage Addresses Overview pane, all aliases that are configured are displayed in the content pane. From Aliases you can quickly view the account information for a specific alias, move the alias from one account to another, and delete the alias.
 
</div><div class="a_0032Heading">
 
===Class of Service===
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
Class of Service (COS) determines what default attributes a Zimbra Web Client email account has and which features are enabled or denied. The COS controls mailbox quotas, message lifetime, password restrictions, attachment blocking, and server pools for creation of new accounts.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
A default COS is automatically created during the installation of Zimbra Collaboration Suite. You can modify the default COS to set the attributes to your email restrictions, and you can create new COS’s to assign to accounts. A COS is global and is not restricted to a particular domain or set of domains.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
Each account is assigned one COS. When an account is created, if the COS is not explicitly set, the default COS is assigned. If the COS assigned to the user no longer exists, the account is automatically assigned the default COS.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
Assigning a COS to an account quickly configures account features and restrictions. Some of the COS settings can be overridden either by global settings or by user settings. For example:
 
</div><div class="Bulleted1_outer" style="margin-left: 0pt">

See the Administration Console Help for a complete description of the fields in a class of service.
 
</div><div class="a_0033Heading">
 
====Distributing Accounts Across Servers====
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
In an environment with multiple mailbox servers, the class of service is used to assign a new account to a mailbox server. The COS server pool tab lists the mailbox servers in your Zimbra environment. When you configure the COS, you select which servers to add to the server pool. Within each pool of servers, a random algorithm assigns new mailboxes to any available server.
 
</div><div class="Notice">
 
<span class="Bold">Note: </span>You can assign an account to a particular mailbox server when you create an account in the New Account Wizard, Mail Server field. Uncheck '''auto''' and enter the mailbox server in the Mail Server field.

After the mailbox is moved to a new server, a copy still remains on the older server, but the status of old mailbox is closed. Users cannot log on and mail is not delivered. You should check to see that all the mailbox contents were moved successfully before purging the old mailbox.

==Managing Distribution Lists==
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
A distribution list is a group of email addresses contained in a list with a common email address. When users send to a distribution list, they are sending to everyone whose address is included in the list. The address line displays the distribution list address; the individual recipient addresses cannot be viewed. Only administrators can create, change, or delete distribution lists.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
When an Zimbra user’s email address is added to a distribution list, the user ‘s account is updated with user account’s '''Member Of''' tab. When a distribution list is deleted or the removed, the distribution list is automatically removed from the '''Member Of '''tab.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
The '''Hide in GAL''' check box can be enabled to create distribution lists that do not display in the Global Address List (GAL). You can use this feature to limit the exposure of the distribution list to only those that know the address.
 
</div><div class="a_0032Heading">
 
===Using Distribution Lists for Group Sharing===
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
Distribution lists can be created as group lists so that users can quickly share their contact lists, calendars, and Zimbra documents with everyone on the list. Everyone has the same share privileges that the user defines. When new members are added to the group distribution list, they are automatically granted the same shared privileges as other members of the group. When members are removed from the group distribution list, their share privileges are revoked.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
If you create a distribution list for sharing and do not want the distribution list to receive mail, you can disable the '''Can receive mail''' checkbox.
 
</div><div class="a_0031Heading">
 
==Managing Resources==
 
</div><div class="BodyAfterHead">
 
A resource is a location or piece of equipment that can be scheduled for a meeting. The resource has its own mailbox address and accepts or rejects invitations automatically. Accounts with the Calendar feature can select resources for their meetings.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
You create resources and manage their use from the administration console. A Resource Wizard guides you through the resource configuration, including designating the type of resource, the scheduling policy, the location, and a description.
 
</div><div class="Body">
 
To schedule a resource or location, users invite the equipment and/or location to a meeting. When they select the resource, they can view the notes about the resource and view free/busy status for the resource, if set up. When the meeting invite is sent, an email is sent to the resource account, and if the resource is free, the meeting is automatically entered in the resource’s calendar.
