Webmail

The Webmail installed in IPBrick is Horde and can be configured to deal with other e-mail servers that are not IPBrick. Therefore you only have to specify in this section which IMAP^4.13 and SMTP^4.14 servers will be used (Figure 4.43).

Figure 4.43: WebMail - Servers

To change the servers click Modify. The servers may be identified by their FQDN^4.15 or their IP address.

If we got a Intranet IPBrick (or another intranet mail server) and a Communications IPBrick, you need to point the IMAP and SMTP to the internal mail server address. To use the IPBrick webmail at Internet you just need to:

• Register a A record or CNAME called webmail at the public DNS server of the company domain, pointing to the IPBrick public IP;
• If the IPBrick don't have a public IP at eth1, configure a DNAT rule in router to the port 443 and eth1 IPBrick IP.
