We have MaxMail set up to auto-add new users. Be sure to clean up later. Delete aliases created as accounts, then re-add them as aliases to keep billing accurate.

The default/temporary password is apparently only applied to users created at that time. So, reset the default/temporary password after new users are created.

Sibling Domains Documentation

Sibling domains are just aliases for the primary domain and all settings for the primary domain apply to all aliases. This eases multi-domain management significantly.

User management is done at the primary domain, even if mail aliases are only used at the sibling domain. All users will get a username @primary.tld for purposes of MaxMail.

Example primary domain (example.com MX records):

example.com.	IN	MX	10	example.com.pri-mx.na0107.smtproutes.com.
example.com.	IN	MX	90	example.com.bak-mx.na0107.smtpbak.com.

The MX records for sibling domains (sibling.com) are in the format:

sibling.com.	IN	MX	10	sibling.com.pri-mx.na0107.smtproutes.com.
sibling.com.	IN	MX	90	sibling.com.bak-mx.na0107.smtpbak.com.

Only the first (domain) part will change from the primary for the sibling domains.

1. Log into the Management Console as user.
2. From the Home tab click on View your message queue

If you select the Partners tab and make changes, they generally apply to all Organizations and Domains below that level.

MaxMail → Partners → Users → Web Admin Authentication

• Use passwords stored locally
• Set a default password

If you set a default password for the end user this password will stay the same until the end user goes into his/her settings in MaxMail and changes the password. Once it is changed the temporary password will no longer apply.

If you change the password at the Partner level it will apply across all Organizations and all Domains within those Organizations. If you apply it at the Organization level it will change it for all Domains within that Organization.

Set at the Partner level under the Alerts tab.

Also set at the Partner level under the Alerts tab.

Spam filter training is not, apparently, designed to be done by end users other than:

• Whitelist
• Blacklist

Administrators can submit mis-classified mail (ham, spam) using a Support web page:

https://mail.maxfocus.com/support/falsereports

Additionally, an admin can open a ticket and submit a zipped (.zip) archive of problem messages for further evaluation and use by MaxMail.
