From One to Many When you want to send messages to multiple recipients, mail servers can provide shortcuts: they let you create aliases and mailing lists, which are two ways of sending e-mail to one e-mail address that represents another or many other e-mail addresses. Aliases are administrator-created shortcuts to one or more e-mail addresses. As for mailing lists, users can manage, create, and administer them, and let anyone interested in being part of the list add themselves and control their options by sending e-mail messages to the mail server, even if they don't have an account on the server.

IMAP supports a wider range of authentication methods, making it a more secure protocol. However, the storage of all messages on the server also means that IMAP servers require more resources than POP servers. Virtually all email clients today support both POP and IMAP. Both protocols are also managed by the same mail server component, Cyrus, under Mac OS X Server. You can choose to encourage users to use one of the two protocols in your organization and you can even choose which of the two will be available on your mail server.

For example, MailMate is the only app that supports sending either a link to the original message or a copy of the message itself to OmniFocus (by using “Add” or “Add with Summary”). MailMate is one of the most expensive email clients we reviewed, and is available for $50 from the (there is a 30-day trial available).

4D Mail doesn't provide mailing-list capabilities. Sending and Receiving All four mail servers use standard Internet protocols to get e-mail where it needs to go: SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol), POP (Post Office Protocol), and IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol). 4D Mail and PostOffice use these three protocols and encrypt the POP password. But these protocols send messages in unencrypted clear text, so a machine on the same network as the server and client can potentially read information in transit. Using a secure connection to exchange passwords and transfer e-mail is one of the simplest ways an organization can protect itself from information theft.

You can configure the server to tag mail with a certain score as spam, and then to either alter the subject line (for example, adding **SPAM** to alert users), or to silently discard the message. CommuniGate Pro users can download the SpamCatcher plug-in from Stalker's Web site -- you can also use SpamAssassin with CommuniGate Pro, but it's difficult to set up.

How to configure the Mac OS X Server mail services is a topic that is not often discussed when talking about server management. In fact, mail services have been removed from the Apple Mac OS X Server Essentials course curriculum and exam. This series discusses the basics of how to configure Mac OS X Server as an email server. It focuses on configuration basics using Server Admin and some of the advanced configuration that can be done from the command line. Mail services under Mac OS X Server have actually gone through an interesting series of changes over the past few years. The original mail service was developed by Apple based on the email server included with AppleShare IP (Apple’s classic Mac OS server platform).

It’s these well-thought-out features like this that make Postbox a legitimate contender for the third-party email client crown. While it may not have all the bells and whistles, the features that are included are intentional and well-implemented. What keeps us from crowning Postbox the winner is the lack of native Exchange support and the fact that the interface is still a little clunky. For the most part, it’s fine, but it definitely doesn’t look as nice as Airmail, and you’ll occasionally find things that seem out of place. For example, the magnifying glass icon that appears in the search window is still a very pixelated, non-retina icon that (if you’re like me) your eye is instantly drawn to. With retina Macs being introduced in 2012, this is somewhat inexcusable and seems like a fairly obvious oversight (especially since the rest of the app was updated with retina 2x assets).
