1. Install WinPmail in the multiuser mode on the "server". Use c:\pmail
for the program; c:\pmail\mail for the mail directories.
2. Run PCONFIG.exe from the WinPMail program directory and change the HOME and
NEW mail directory specification to the \\server\vol\pmail\mail\~8
format.
3. Go to the remote workstations and install a shortcut to the common
program.
Ok, now you have the basic mail system setup. You can send mail to each other using Pegasus Mail and the Pegasus Mail username as the e-mail address.
4. Install Mercury/32 on this same server pointing to the Pegasus Mail
directory structure. Use MercuryP, MercuryS, MercuryC at least. Use
\\server\vol\mercury\queue for the mail spool directory.
You now can send and receive SMTP mail via Pegasus Mail. The mail is delivered to the Pegasus Mail directories automatically. You send mail simply by putting the output files into the Mercury/32 mail spool directory. This is accomplished automatically with a Pegasus Mail User Defined Gateway. Your e-mail address for sending the mail is username@<internet name for this system>
6. If you want to maintain other POP3/IMAP4 clients, point the client
at the at your Mercury/32 host as a POP3 and SMTP host using the IP
address of the mercury system for the server name and Pegasus Mail
username and password to pickup the mail.
You can do a complete inbound and outbound mail archive with this setup using a simple Mercury/32 "Always" filter that put a copy in a users mail directory.
