The Proxy Agent allows users to manage several e-mail accounts from a central mailbox. Users can retrieve messages from up to three POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail accounts on other messaging systems. (The Proxy Agent cannot retrieve messages from mail systems that do not provide POP3 or IMAP4 access to their mailboxes.) All messages retrieved from these accounts are stored in the users NetMail® mailbox as if it were the original destination.
Depending on the user settings, a copy of retrieved messages can be left in the original mailbox or the messages can be deleted from the host server. All proxy information is stored in the User object.
IMPORTANT: You must restart the mailprox executable to effect any changes in the Proxy Agent's configuration. For information on loading and unloading the NetMail Agents, see the Novell® NetMail Administration Guide at http://www.novell.com/documentation.
