B: Allowing new users to sign up automatically |
Useradd.aspx
Useradd.aspx replaces join.htm (Section 2.2.4 / page 15 in the MailMax/WEB 4 manual) in MailMax/WEB 4.1.
In order to allow new users the ability to automatically sign up to use your
MailMax/WEB service, you need create a link that accesses the ‘useradd.aspx’ page.
This page was installed automatically with your other MailMax/WEB files and
is located in the root of the directory that you installed MailMax/WEB.
Configuring useradd.aspx
1. Edit useradd.aspx in Notepad
2. Edit the settings below ‘// You must change these to reflect your server. The first option is SQL Authentication and the second option is NT Authentication. NT Authentication is enabled by default.’ (see
screenshot below).

If you would like to use NT Authentication, you need to simply modify and add
your domain in 'string domainName = "yourdomain.com" (ex. string domainName = "smartmax.com").
After you have made the change, save useradd.aspx and go to the url where it
is located. Users can now add new mailboxes through your website.
