Every VMS package comes with a certain number of "floater" email accounts; these are email accounts which can be assigned to hosted accounts within a VMS. The VMS owner can decide how these floaters are assigned using the "Modify emails" interface.
For the hosted domains which you haves selected, the number of email accounts assigned can be adjusted using the drop-down menu and text box provided in this interface. The drop-down menu provides the following options:
Set
To
Choosing "set to" and entering a number in the text
box provided will set all selected hosted accounts to have the number
of additional email boxes you have indicated. Please note that if a specific
domain already has more email accounts in use than you have specified,
the new limit is imposed without deleting accounts. The domain will not
be able to create more email accounts; if an account is deleted by the
user, another cannot be created until the user is below the new limit.
Add
Selecting this option from the drop-down menu and entering a number
in the text box provided allows you to add the specified number of email
accounts to all selected domains.
Remove
Choosing this option from the drop-down menu and entering a number
in the text box provided allows you to remove the specified number of
email accounts from all selected domains. Please note that if a specific
domain already has more email accounts in use than the new limit specifies,
the limit is imposed without deleting accounts. The domain will not be
able to create more email accounts; if an account is deleted by the user,
another cannot be created until the user is below the new limit.
Choosing an option from the drop-down menu, specifying a quantity in the textbox provided, and clicking "ok" or "apply" will readjust the number of additional email boxes for all selected accounts. Please note that it is not possible to delete accounts currently in use by a specific domain, nor is it possible to assign more floater emails are available. The total number of floaters, along the number of floaters currently unassigned, is displayed at the bottom of this interface.
Clicking "cancel" aborts any unsaved changes, and returns you to the domain settings main menu.
