·       Microsoft .Net Framework 1.0 or 1.1

 

Installation

 

Download the Intellipeer Email Server and save the .zip file to your local hard drive. 

 

Extract the files to a temporary location for installation.

 

Click on the setup.exe file to begin the installation.

 

Accept the license agreement and install the software.

 

Configuration

 

Use Start->All Programs->Intellipeer Administrator to launch the Administration Tool.

 

You will see a screen similar to this:

 

 

 

Click on the “Configuration” tab to begin configuration.

 

 

 

Select Automatic Configuration.

 

 

 

 

 

A dialog similar to this will come up.  Use the far left selection row to select the interface you wish to use.  If you do not see any changes when you click OK then you did not select a network using the far left selection row.

 

Click Apply to save your changes.

 

Note: If you do not have a UPnP enabled gateway (or UPnP has been disabled), you will need configure your gateway manually.  You will need to forward ports 25 and 110 to your machine.  This is what the admin page for a Linksys router would look like:

 

 

 

 Ok, you’re now half-way there.  Your connection is configured, but you do not have any users.  To add a user, click on the “Manage Users” link.

 

 

 

 

 

Click on Accounts to Add accounts from your local machine accounts.  You may also choose not to use this and create accounts manually using the Add button.  This allows you to support friends or family that you do not have direct access to your machine.

 

 

 

Once again, be sure to use the far left selection tool in order to select the accounts. 

 

 

 

Licensing

 

You will notice that after you have done all of this configuration, the service will not start.  You have not made a mistake; you simply need to register your server.  Click on the "Get Trial License" button on the Configuration page and the Intellipeer Adminiistrator will retrieve and install your license.  If you have purchased a license, this will be returned instead of a trial license.

 

Important Note:  Your license is tied to your domain name.  You must be installing Intellipeer from the intended machine, and the IP address must match the DNS entry.  Intellipeer licensing will independently verify your domain name matches your IP address before returning your license.  Before requesting a license, be sure your domain name is resolving properly.

 

 

Congratulations, and thank you for licensing your software!

 

 

Click on the Status tab and click the “Start Service” button.  The status indicator should turn Green.  Your email server is now up and running.

   

Outlook Express

 

 

Now use Outlook or Outlook Express and create a new email account that points to your server.  This example will use Outlook Express.

 

From Tool->Accounts… click on Add->Mail…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The password is your windows login password.

 

 

Intellipeer has implemented additional security for your SMTP server to prevent spammers from using it to send email using your email address.  If you receive the error "535 Authorization Required" when trying to send email you have discovered this feature.  To fix the problem, go back to the email account configuration, double-click on your email account and select the "Server" tab. Make sure the Outgoing Mail Server has the "My server requires authentication" checkbox checked.

 

    

Congratulations, you are now completely configured.  Send yourself some email just to make sure everything is working correctly.
