Step 2: Set up your Web Server

Choose IIS User Account

  1. If you have multiple Web sites configured in IIS, a dialog tells you that the Installation Wizard has detected multiple Web sites set up in IIS. Select the Web site to which you want to install the IMail Administrator and Client applications. The Web site you select from the list will be the default Web site you log into for access to Web Administrator and Web Client applications. Click Next.
  2. Choosing the IIS User Account is selection screen asks you to choose between using the default IIS user IUSR_ComputerName, or gives capability to use a different user for setup.

    If you select "Use a different user" option it take you to another window to allow you to log to another username that is either an NT system user or an AD domain user before continuing. This option requires that you set user permissions manually. For detailed information regarding this and manually configuring IIS, see the Release Notes.

  3. Next, the install dialog asks you to choose to either restart IIS and all dependent services automatically, or not. We recommend that you select Yes and have setup restart IIS, as well as all other dependent services, such as WWW, FTP, and SMTP.
