Using Magnia SG20 local email
The Magnia SG20 is set up to support local email automatically. All accounts that are
created on the system are capable of sending and receiving local email.
To use the Magnia SG20 to host local email traffic, you do not need to change any server
settings.
Because all email programs use a domain (like
mycompany.com
) to address email, the local
mail service of the Magnia SG20 established a local domain. This domain is
myserver.loc
.
Each user account on the Magnia SG20 is set up with local email so that you can send
email to
where
acct
is the user’s account name.

ISP Only
If you already have an email service with an ISP, you can continue to use this from your
client computers. In this mode, your client computers communicate directly with your ISP,
sending and receiving email to and from the ISP’s mail servers. If you choose to access
email in this manner, simply set up your mail clients such as Outlook
®
Express (or keep
their existing setup) as defined by your ISP.
When setting client computers up in this way, you are not using the Magnia SG20 mail
server, and are simply using its shared Internet gateway to access your existing ISP
email accounts.
