Mail Registration Options dialog box
Use this dialog box to specify the mail registration options to be applied to users during the registration process.

1. Complete these fields:
FieldAction
Mail SystemChoose one of these mail systems that will be applied to each user that you register with these settings:
  • Lotus Notes
  • POP
  • IMAP
  • Domino Web Access
  • Other Internet
  • Other
  • None
If you select Lotus Notes, POP, or IMAP, the Internet address is automatically generated.

If you select Other Internet, POP, or IMAP, the Internet password is set by default.

If you select Domino Web Access, you can change other user registration selections to Domino Web Access defaults by clicking Yes when prompted.

Also, if you select Other or Other Internet, enter a forwarding address. This address is the user's current address, where the user wants mail to be sent. For example, if a user temporarily works at a different location and/or uses a different mail system, the user can have her mail forwarded to that new address. Or, a user may resign from the company but leave a forwarding address so that mail addressed to the old address is forwarded to the new location.

Mail serverThe user's mail server. The mail server contains the user's mail file. The mail server that you assign here is the default mail server for the user. If you do not define a mail server in Administration Preferences, the mail server is (by default) the local server if it contains a Domino Directory or the Administration server.
Create file in background

Create file now

Choose one:
  • Create file in background - Creating mail files in the background forces the Administration Process to create the files and saves time during the user registration process.
  • Create file now - Create the mail file during the registration process which can be very time-consuming when registering numerous users. When you migrate users who have mail to convert, this field is automatically set to Create file now.
