Albus Dumbledore 0 Report post Posted October 28, 2006 (edited) This Tutorial will be divided into 7 different parts, and this is the first part, when i get the other parts together, i will post the links under here Enjoy.Part 2: Useful Site Management ToolsPart 3: Useful Site Management Tools2.1Part 4: Analysis/Log FilesPart 5: Advanced ToolsPart 6: PreInstalled Scripts, Extras, and Cpanel OptionsPart 7: FantasticoDetailed Cpanel Tutorial Part 1: E-mail ManagementIn this tutorial I will, in detail explain all of the features of the current cpanel version of Xisto.com hosting going from the top of the screen to the bottom.. I have completely written this up myself.E-mail Management - Add or Remove E-Mail AccountsWith this feature you can create e-mail accounts for staff members, or just for members you feel deserve it. You can also delete those accounts, set a space limit for them. Check their mail if you know their password, change their password. With the Aging tool, you can set how many days to keep the e-mails in their in-box before the system deletes them. When your hosting is created, you will have a default e-mail account made which will be CPANEL-USERNAME@yoursite.com With Xisto you are limited to 99 e-mail accounts. - Read WebmailWith this feature, when you click on the icon it will take you to the Default E-mail inbox account for your hosting. Generally, the default one is just CPANELUSERNAME@yoursite.com so it will take you to that one. - Set Default E-mail AccountWith this feature, you can edit the default e-mail account for your hosting. - Auto RespondersWith this feature, if you are going on vacation for a week or two, and don't want the people who e-mail you to not receive e-mails back for a week, then use this feature and set-up a message that will be sent to anyone that sends you an e-mail telling you the message that you typed when setting it up. - E-mail FilteringWith this feature, you can enter SPAM e-mails that you have gotten from people into a big box, then enter it into the system, and apparently it will permanently block all of the e-mails you receive from that person. - Aliases / ForwardingWith this feature, you can set-up an e-mail forwarder. Basically Whenever someone sends you an e-mail, it will save a copy in your inbox, then it will forward you a copy of that e-mail the the e-mail address that you specify. - Email Domain ForwardersWith this feature, you can forward any e-mails sent to your domain to automatically be sent to a specified domain. So, if you were to want to forward all of your e-mails from harry.com to jackie.com you could do that. - E-mail Address TraceWith this feature, you can look-up the IP Addresses of the MX Servers that this person's e-mail is directed through. I consider this one to be a waste of space. - Mailing ListsWith this feature, you can set-up a script that allows members of your site to input their e-mail address and it would subscribe them to a Mailing List, then through the script, you can e-mail all of these people with maybe site-updates, or questions or anything else. - Modify Mail Exchanger (MX Entry)With This Feature, you can change the MX Settings for your websites e-mail, this is a little bit of a complicated things for new people to understand, even i dont fully understand it. So the most i can say is that it is used so people can completely direct their e-mail through a totaly different server, the mail wont even meet with Xisto's server.
