The Local Services: Global Options page allows you to change the
administrator mail settings, SMTP host and port settings, and the quarantine secret.
These settings are saved in /opt/pmx/etc/pmx.conf.
To set these global options:
Change the Administrative Mail Settings and
Quarantine Options text boxes as required.
The text boxes are:
Administrator Name: Specifies the PureMessage administrator's name,
which is used in the From header of messages generated by PureMessage. For example,
PureMessage
Admin.
Administrator Email: Specifies the PureMessage administrator's email
address, which is appended to the Administrator Name in the From header
of messages generated by PureMessage. For example,
PureMessage
Admin [PureMessageAdmin@foo.com].
Mail Server (SMTP) Host: Specifies the server to which re-sent
messages are directed. For example, when messages are released from
quarantine, they are routed via this server. The value is normally
specified in the form
smtp:<hostname> (for example
smtp:mail.foo.com).
Mail Server (SMTP) Port: Specifies the port on the server
specified above (normally "25").
Quarantine Secret: When messages are released from quarantine, an
X-PMX-Quarantine-Approved header with the
"Quarantine Secret" value is added to the message. When the PureMessage milter encounters this
header, it validates the contents, and if it matches, the header is
deleted and the message is delivered without filtering. There is no
default; it is uniquely configured for each site during the PureMessage installation.
Note: It is important that you do not disclose this value
because email that is formatted with the proper header and this key
is not processed by PureMessage.
Once you have finished making changes, click Save.
