The Modular Web Agent provides the template interfaces for the NetMail® mail client. There are two available templates: WebAccess and WebMail. Either template allows users to send and receive mail, manage folders, and set mail preferences from any standard Internet browser.
The Modular Web Agent also includes the following modules which enable various client functions:
Mail Module: Provides mail and address book functions.
Calendar Module: Enables the WebAccess calendar features, including appointments, tasks, and notes.
Preferences Module: Allows users to change their passwords and other client preferences.
Task Management Module: Enables the administrator to delegate administrative functions such as creating, modifying, or deleting users.
In addition to the basic NetMail memory requirements, the Modular Web Agent requires approximately 300 KB per expected simultaneous connection to your NetMail system.
In order for users to access their mailboxes, your messaging system must include at least one POP, IMAP, or Modular Web Agent.
IMPORTANT: You must restart the modwebd executable to effect any changes in the configuration of the Modular Web Agent or its plug-in modules. For information on loading and unloading the NetMail Agents, see the Novell® NetMail Administration Guide at http://www.novell.com/documentation.
