== Step 3: Access and Configure mailcow == Firstly, my screenshots from this guide were missing the top bar β my apologies. Refer to this below to see what was cut off, and hopefully where my mouse is clicking in both the rest of the screenshots & the video will make sense: <gallery mode="packed-hover" heights=250 widths=400 perrow=2> File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_c552f8ef.png File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_2c7243ee.png </gallery> <span id="access-the-web-interface"></span> ==== 3.1 Access the web interface ==== Open a browser and navigate to <code>https://mailserver.home.arpa</code>, replacing <code>your-mailcow-domain</code> with the hostname you set up when installing Ubuntu and making a static mapping. For example, with '''pfSense'''βs default domain ''home.arpa'', if the hostname is ''mailserver'', you can access it at <code>https://mailserver.home.arpa</code>. If unsure, use the IP address. If the IP is <code>192.168.5.3</code>, it would be <code>https://192.168.5.3/</code>. Ignore the warning about self-signed certificates since this is a new installation. <span id="log-in-with-default-credentials"></span> ==== 3.2 Log in with default credentials ==== * '''Username:''' admin * '''Password:''' moohoo <gallery mode="packed-hover" heights=250 widths=400 perrow=2> File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_aa2eac37.png File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_40fcec0b.png File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_4c65a41d.png </gallery> <span id="change-the-administrative-password"></span> ==== 3.3 Change the administrative password ==== * Click on '''System β Configuration''' in the top menu. * Click on '''Access β Administrators'''. * Find the admin account and click the edit (pencil) icon. * Enter a new, strong password. * Click βSave changesβ. <gallery mode="packed-hover" heights=250 widths=400 perrow=2> File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_4255fdcb.png File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_a4d4f170.png </gallery> <span id="add-a-domain"></span> ==== 3.4 Add a domain ==== * Go to '''Email β Configuration''' on the top menu. * In the '''Domains''' tab, click '''Add domain'''. * Enter your domain name (e.g., yourdomain.com). * Set any desired options (quota, aliases, etc.). * Click '''Add domain''' (for example, <code>louishomeserver.chickenkiller.com</code>). <gallery mode="packed-hover" heights=250 widths=400 perrow=2> File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_40fc5c1d.png File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_316dff73_2.png File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_f296577e.png File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_316dff73.png </gallery> <span id="add-an-email-account"></span> ==== 3.5 Add an email account ==== * Go to '''Email β Configuration β Mailboxes'''. * In the '''Mailboxes''' tab, click '''Add mailbox'''. ** Enter the username (the part before @ in the email address). ** Choose the domain name (e.g., louis@yourdomain.com). ** Set a password for the mailbox. ** Make sure to check '''Grant direct login access to SOGo''' *** This is what we use for webmail, calendar & contacts * Click '''Add ''' to add your mailbox. <gallery mode="packed-hover" heights=250 widths=400 perrow=2> File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_f3c558c8.png File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_c65c7b62.png File:lu55028jxdhn_tmp_49a98cdf.png </gallery> <span id="step-4-accessing-calendarcontacts-services"></span>
