Configuration
Enable automatic domain creation
When enabled, SecurityGateway will query your default user verification sources whenever an incoming message is for an unknown address at an unknown domain. If the address is valid, SecurityGateway will create both the domain and user. Automatic Domain Creation requires at least one default user verification source to be defined, and since queries will be made for all unknown addresses, a large number of queries might be made. This feature is disabled by default.
When using this feature it is crucial that your verification sources are properly configured to verify ONLY valid users. If a verification source were an open relay, for example, then every incoming email to an unknown domain or user would be validated by that source. This would likely result in many erroneous domains and users being created, caused by incoming spam to invalid addresses. |
