Webmail¶
Modoboa provides a simple webmail:
- Browse, read and compose messages, attachments are supported
- HTML messages are supported
- CKeditor integration
- Manipulate mailboxes (create, move, remove)
- Quota display
To use it, go to the online panel and modify the following parameters to communicate with your IMAP server (under IMAP settings):
| Name | Description | Default value |
|---|---|---|
| Server address | Address of your IMAP server | 127.0.0.1 |
| Use a secured connection | Use a secured connection to access IMAP server | no |
| Server port | Listening port of your IMAP server | 143 |
Do the same to communicate with your SMTP server (under SMTP settings):
| Name | Description | Default value |
|---|---|---|
| Server address | Address of your SMTP server | 127.0.0.1 |
| Secured connection mode | Use a secured connection to access SMTP server | None |
| Server port | Listening port of your SMTP server | 25 |
| Authentication required | Server needs authentication | no |
Note
The size of each attachment sent with messages is limited. You can change the default value by modifying the Maximum attachment size parameter.
Using CKeditor¶
Modoboa supports CKeditor to compose HTML messages. To use it, first download it from the official website, then extract the tarball:
$ cd <modoboa_site_dir>
$ tar xzf /path/to/ckeditor/tarball.tag.gz -C sitestatic/js/
And you’re done!
Now, each user has the possibility to choose between CKeditor and the raw text editor to compose their messages. (see User > Settings > Preferences > Webmail)
