3) Install WINDOWS SERVER 2003

4) Basic patch (anti-virus)... Do not connect the network cable before this!

5) Patch online

6) Uninstall or disable Microsoft SMTP service (Simple Mail Transpor Protocol), otherwise Port conflict will occur.

7) Install WinWebMail, then restart the server to make WinWebMail complete the installation. And register.

8) Permission settings: Note, this is the key point, if it is not good, it will appear Can't delete emails from webmail, or the account can't log in to webmail and so on.

For example: When the mail system is installed in the D:\\WinWebMail directory, you need to set the permissions:

D:\\ root directory Users read and run

D :\\WinWebMail (and all its subdirectories) Users Full Control

After the permissions are set, don't forget to restart IIS for the settings to take effect.

10.4 You must set the first step for macro viruses and non-macro viruses to delete infected files, and you must turn off the warning prompt!!

10.5 You must exclude \\mail and all its subdirectories in the installation directory in the virus detection settings (or mail count errors will occur), only for the \\temp folder under the WinWebMail installation folder.
