Working With Mail Settings for Users

You can create a Mac OS X Server mail service account for a user by specifying mail settings
for the user in the user’s account. To use the account, the user simply configures a mail client
to identify the user name, password, mail service, and mail protocol you specify in the mail
settings.

In Workgroup Manager, use the Mail tab in the user account window to work with a user’s
mail service settings.

See Chapter 9, “Mail Service,” for information about how to set up and manage Mac OS X
Server mail service.
