Mail Service Overview
Mail service lets users send and receive email on your local network and the Internet,
using any email application. Mail service includes lters that protect users from junk
mail and viruses. Mail service works with the Mail application in Mac OS X, Mail on
iPhone, and other popular mail applications that use the standard IMAP, POP, and SMTP
email protocols.
Web Services Overview
Web services can provide wiki, blogs, web calendars, web access to email, and custom
websites.
If web services are on, everyone with a user account on the server gets a convenient
wiki portal, called My Page, for viewing and creating wikis and blogs, using web
calendars, tracking wiki updates, and accessing webmail.
All users can easily create wikis and control who can view, search, and edit their wiki
content. By using included templates or creating their own, users can add, delete, edit,
and format content naturally—without knowing markup codes or special syntax.
With a few clicks, or by dragging and dropping, they can attach les and images,
publish podcasts, assign keywords, and link to other wiki pages or other websites.
They can also review the wiki’s complete history of changes and revert any page to
a previous version.
