Chapter 5:
Setting Up Mailboxes
Overview
The design of Amanda@Work.Group/DOS depends upon the mailboxes that
you have defined. What a caller hears and can do is controlled by the
mailbox that the caller is accessing at the moment and how that mailbox is
configured. When you configure a particular user’s mailbox, you control
what that user can do with Amanda and what he can change about his
mailbox.
You can create mailboxes based on a template or as a copy of any existing
mailbox. Using a template allows you to make sure all users have the same
basic call-processing features. You can change individual mailboxes as
necessary.
If you are running Amanda as a voice server, you use Amanda Administrator
to manage mailboxes across the LAN. The icon to the left indicates the
sections of this chapter that pertain to Amanda Administrator.
If you are running Amanda as a standalone system, you use the Users screen
to manage mailboxes. The icon to the left indicates the sections of this
chapter that pertain to the standalone system.
