Step 7: Final Options and Adding IMail Administrator

Instant Messenger User Database (IMail Premium Only)

If you are installing IMail Premium then the Setup Type screen to select a user database for authenticating Instant Messenger Users will appear. The following options are:

• Ipswitch Instant Messaging Server - If Ipswitch Instant Messaging Server is selected, user IDs and passwords for IM accounts are stored and authenticated from the Ipswitch Instant Messaging database (in the registry).
• Windows NT User Database - If you select Windows NT User Database, Instant Messaging Server creates a user IM account for each user listed in the Windows NT Database user IDs and passwords for IM accounts are stored and authenticated from the Windows NT Database.

  Note: With this option, you cannot add or delete users using IMail Server. NT User Manager must be used to add or delete users.

• IMail Server (Default selection) - Stores and authenticates all user IDs and passwords for IM accounts in the IMail Server database (in the registry).

It is recommended that the IMail User Database be selected for user authentication.

WorkgroupShare Client Setup (IMail Premium Only)

The WorkgroupShare client must be installed on each computer that will share and use data, such as contacts and calendars, with Microsoft Outlook.

This Setup Type screen gives the option to share the WorkgroupShare ClientSetup folder located at C:\Program Files\Ipswitch\Messaging\WorkgroupShare\ClientSetup if default path was selected.

Ipswitch recommends sharing this folder across your network for client efficiency.

Proxy Server

If you are using a proxy server, enter the proxy server IP address and port in the text box provided. This will provide access to the messaging services. Example: 196.168.100.55:80

Start Menu and Shortcuts

Select Program Folder will allow where setup is to create new shortcuts for the IMail Server installation.

You may type a new folder name, or select one from the already existing folders list.

Adding Administrator and Users to Your System

If you selected the IMail Database option, the Add Administrator an Add User dialogs appear. You must add an administrator and we recommend you add a few "stand-in" users so you can test the installation. You can also add users at any time after the installation. Follow the on-screen instructions.

Restart Your System

If you are prompted to restart your system, it is because the installation could not properly set up a file. A Dynamic Link Library (DLL) is most likely to cause this problem. To ensure that IMail Server runs properly, restart as soon as possible.
