Butch,

 

I am assuming you wish to be able to see and rescue items for a user OTHER than admin? Here is how:

 

Log in as admin and go to the admin area

 

Go to system configuration and click the dot for “Allow admins to read users mail”; then the update button for that section

 

Go back to the main admin area and click ‘Users” to go to the ‘Administration:Users̶1; page

 

Use the top section to search for the user whose mail you wish to view/rescue etc

 

When the user is found, click on their name to go to their home page as them

 

Do whatever you need to do

 

 

NOTE: In the US there are laws about this stuff. You MUST have a published policy that stipulates you are able to do this and that all users agree to it when they use your system. The policy should be true for ALL users.

Butch,

If your account is a little used account that has no spam in its cache, then you just bump to home. That is alos the behavior of my installation. If you have no users yet you won't have spam either. Also, the default domain settings are 'wide open' so nothing is considered spam until you edit the default domains or a particulr users settings. It seems to work like:

--set the default domain settings --- all domains created use the current default domain as a template for settings ----all users created in a domain use thier domain's settings as their default.

So if the default is wide open, you can see how that 'trickles down' into the user settings.

The reason for the wide open settings is so you can put Maia into place on a working system and not interrupt the flow of mail until you are ready.

A user must log in at least one time, or the 'account autocreation' must be enabled before ANY settings take effect for thier mailbox. Please observe the notes about security before you enable autocreation of user accounts. So just creating the domain and expecting the mailboxes in it to be automatically protected is incorrect. You have to log in or autocreate the mailbox to gett he settings to be in effect.

So set the default domain's spam level settings, then set any current domains, then any current users you want monitored should log in and set thier own levels.

If you need some test spam, google on 'GTUBE' for a test string SA definitely detects.

Hope that helps!

Regards,

Brian Carroll
