Getting Started with the Management Console

Once your license is installed, you can start on either of two task-specific tracks with the Management Console, depending on the current state of your Scalix system:

If you've already migrated a large number of users

If you migrated existing users (and their mail data) from a previous mail server, perform these basic tasks in the Management Console:

• Add any new users or groups
• Edit any existing users or groups
• Check the status of Scalix services and queues, including a quick check of the main message store
• Review and fine-tune Scalix settings

Each of these procedures is explained in greater depth in this help system.

If you are setting up a first-time mail server

If you are setting up Scalix as a brand-new server and have no existing mail users, you must do most of the same tasks. In this scenario, adding users is your primary workload.

• Add users and groups
• Check the status of Scalix services and queues
• Review and adjust a subset of Scalix settings

Each of these procedures is explained in greater depth in this help system.
