New features

Create different groups (classes) of users using the newly embedded Account Classes page of the WebAdmin interface. This new feature enables system administrators to configure and impose different behavior patterns for the account classes they create. Each new user added to a certain class will then inherit its behavioral template.

This new feature enables easy creation of administrative groups, with predetermined membership hierarchies and permissions, assigned to specific domains. Administrative users can further be created within one or more of the available groups.
An administrative user will then automatically inherit the parameters of the group it is being created in. Administrative users can be assigned to one or more groups with a few mouse clicks. Membership can be limited or expanded by the system administrator at any time. Permissions are assigned to each user through a Quick Add button and allow in-depth configuration. Fine-tune user access by allowing or denying permissions at server and domain management level. For example, a certain user cannot create accounts or access the WebMail service, while being able to create public folders and configure CLI service parameters.

WebAdmin´s Global Settings section grants access to global service parameters, such as setting a primary domain, as well as license information and parameters.

Services Management The new Services section enables quick service management options. Actions such as starting, stopping and restarting a service are easily performed by a simple mouse click on the available buttons.

Parameters Configuration Configure service specific parameters through Axigen´s WebAdmin comprehensive management options: sliders, selection boxes and dropdown menus and text fields, all explained in detail within their Contextual Help.

Basic/Advanced Configuration Domains, accounts, lists and groups can now be easily added using the Quick Add buttons. Advanced configuration options have also been further enhanced.

Public Folders Public Folder addition has been rendered simpler.
To decrease configuration efforts, quota parameters can now be set for all public folders to be created.

Security Policies - AntiVirus and AntiSpam Protection The new Security Policies section of the WebAdmin interface brings all the security tools offered by the AXIGEN Mail Server under the same roof. The fresh AntiVirus options now allow administrators to enable or disable a certain AV application with one mouse click. They can also determine what actions the enabled applications must take when they detect suspicious, infected and disinfected email messages. The newly added AntiSpam tab has the same application enabling/disabling options as the AntiVirus tab. Moreover, easy to use sliders determine message scores that trigger actions such as deleting a message or having it moved to a Spam folder.

Global Access Control IP rules can now be created at server level using the Global Access Control tab. The new tab allows easy IP banning. Access can be granted for an IP or IP range for certain services only, while denied for the rest.
Further more, the new IP check option allows sys admins to quickly view permission information for a certain IP, thus avoiding redundant rules.

Acceptance & Routing Policies Through the sub-pages of the Acceptance and Routing tab, administrators impose certain basic limitations to received email messages, such as a maximum number of recipients, a maximum size, or allowed commands. They can also make use of the routing options that can now be easily configured through the Routing Policies page. For example, system administrators can have all emails sent to a specified host or control outgoing connection parameters.

Queue Queue viewing options have been thoroughly improved. The View Queue page of WebAdmin, as well as the CLI administration tool, allow easy filtering and sorting of stored email messages. Searches can now be run using parameters such as sender, receiver, size, date and time of the next sending retry or message status.

Charts A new feature of the Charts tab is the added groups that can now be used to group charts. The defined chart groups also allow quick and comprehensive browsing through all the displayed graphs. Another new addition to the WebAdmin interface is the Storage Charts tab. This new tab graphically displays space usage information for both overall storage and per domain storage. The Detailed Info button corresponding to each domain administered by AXIGEN graphically depicts space usage information for domain, object and message storage, by displaying all details pertaining to each storage file.

Logging System administrators can now easily have a general idea of logging actions using the Local Log Overview tab. The log level, type and file are displayed for each of the AXIGEN services. The content of log files can now be viewed in the WebAdmin interface. A list of all existing files can be accessed through the View Log Files tab; their content can be displayed by hitting the View button corresponding to each file.

Automatic Migration Automatic Migration can be disabled or enabled with one mouse click only for each domain managed by the AXIGEN Mail Server. It can also be easily set through the Configure button corresponding to each domain.

Clustering A new Clustering section has been designed within the WebAdmin interface, bringing together clustering setup, POP3 Proxy and IMAP Proxy parameters. LDAP connector addition has also been enhanced to now allow quick adding.
