Usage example
You own the domain name ‘mydomain.com’, and want to be able to
receive email to ‘user1@mydomain.com’ and ‘user2@mydomain.com’.
You also have an external email account (i.e. ‘user1@home.se’ or
‘user1@yahoo.com’), that you read using an external webmail site, or
have connected to your favorite email client (i.e. Microsoft Outlook or
Mozilla Thunderbird).
1. Set up BUBBA to receive email to ‘mydomain.com’, by following
the instructions under ‘Set up’ above.
2. Create the users user1 and user2 on BUBBA.
3. Open port 25 in your firewall, and point it to your BUBBA server.
Now, email to ‘user1@yourdomain.com’ and ‘user2@yourdomain.com’
are received by BUBBA, and made available to the respective users.
4. To fetch mail from your external account (i.e. ‘user1@yahoo.com’),
log on to BUBBA web admin interface using as ‘user1’.
5. Click ‘Mail’, and fill out the fields. Your external email provider will
provide information about this. It is actually the same information
you use when setting up your email client (i.e. Microsoft Outlook’)
to read mail from there.
Now, mail to ‘user1@yahoo.com’ are also received by BUBBA, and
made available to user1.
This email is available either using the webmail function
(http://bubba/webmail/
or http://bubba.local/webmail/ if using Mac). If you
want to read the email using your email client, set up a new email IMAP
account there, using ‘bubba’ as server name, and ‘user1’ (or ‘user2’ etc.)
as user name. Done!
