Using Workgroup Manager for Mail Service Access
By default, you use Workgroup Manager to designate which users can use Mail service.
You can do this on an individual basis as discussed below, or you can use templates
that have mail access enabled when you set up the users.
To enable a user’s mail access using Workgroup Manager:
1 In Workgroup Manager, open the user account you want to work with, if it isn’t open.
To open the account, click the Accounts button, click the globe icon below the tool bar
menu, and open the directory domain where the account resides. Click the lock to be
authenticated. Select the user in the user list.
2 Click the Mail tab.
3 If the user doesn’t have mail enabled, enable it now.
4 Click Save.
Using Access Control Lists for Mail Service Access
Access Control Lists (ACLs) are a method of designating service access to users or
groups on an individual basis. For example, you can use an ACL to allow only one user
access to a le server or shell login, without allowing any other user on the server
to access it.
Mail service is dierent from other services that traditionally use ACLs for determining
service access. Mail service is already specied on a per-user basis. Either you have a
mail account on a server or you don’t. Being a user on a server doesn’t automatically
confer access to mail storage and retrieval.
