[06] CAN I USE EMAIL WITH '@LOGIN.FREESHELL.ORG' OR '@LOGIN.SDF-EU.ORG'?
|
|
|
|
Yes you can! This falls under the Virtual POP3 Mailbox (VPM)
|
|
service. This is the same feature that VHOST members have.
|
|
|
|
Basically, your subdomain 'yourlogin.freeshell.org' or
|
|
'youlogin.sdf-eu.org' is FREE and is setup when your run
|
|
'addlink'. You can join the VPM membership level and then
|
|
have 20 VPMs associated with your free domain name!
|
|
|
|
Say you are 'Bob Grady' and your user id is 'grady'. You create
|
|
a subdomain 'grady.freeshell.org' for your family. You can then
|
|
create VPMs for your entire family!
|
|
|
|
You could have:
|
|
|
|
bob@grady.freeshell.org
|
|
mom@grady.freeshell.org
|
|
dad@grady.freeshell.org
|
|
|
|
The same thing applies to your church! With the user id 'fbcd'
|
|
which could be 'First Baptist Church of Dulles' .. with VPM you
|
|
could create:
|
|
|
|
rector@fbcd.freeshell.org
|
|
vicar@fbcd.freeshell.org
|
|
bishop@fbcd.freeshell.org
|
|
cantor@fbcd.freeshell.org
|
|
acolyte@fbcd.freeshell.org
|
|
|
|
And so on!
|
|
|
|
But even more important, the free subdomain is all yours. By default
|
|
'ANYTHING@fbcd.freeshell.org' would go to 'fbcd' mailbox. This helps
|
|
in guarding against spam, as then you would be able to use a random
|
|
username for say a website query. You could then filter on that
|
|
username to block any spam, et cetera.
|
|
|
|
You can use the 'mkvpm' command to manage your mailboxes. For
|
|
more information, checkout the 'VHOST' section of the FAQ.
|
|
|
|
All VPM mailboxes (active and inactive) including their sizes and
|
|
last time/date of writing can be seen using the 'vpmstat' command.
|
|
|
|
Old or large mailboxes can be cleared out with the 'vpmclear' command.
