Synopsis:
An Explanation of the effect of the MailboxTemplate.
More Information:
MailSite supports a special mailbox called MailboxTemplate which is designed to
make it easier to create multiple mailboxes with certain default
characteristics. It is important to understand that the MailboxTemplate is a
powerful tool, and is the default for all mailboxes. Therefore changes to
it may affect all mailboxes, not just ones created in the future.
The MailboxTemplate is automatically created and located in the default domain.
All mailboxes properties that have not been explicitly set will inherit that
property from the MailboxTemplate. Changing a property in the
MailboxTemplate mailbox can also change that same property for all mailboxes
for which that property has not been explicitly set.
It is envisaged that the MailboxTemplate will normally be set to appropriate
defaults before most mailboxes are added. Changes should only be made to the
MailboxTemplate with caution once there are existing mailboxes.
