Settings & Administration

The Settings page is your central hub for server configuration, account management, licensing, and AI features. It has seven tabs -- this page covers the General, Accounts, AI, and License tabs. The other tabs are documented separately:

• Integrations -- see SMTP Relay
• Security -- see IP Access Restrictions
• About -- see Software Updates

General

The General tab configures core server settings.

Click Save Changes after modifying any editable field.

Accounts

The Accounts tab manages who can log into the dashboard and what they can do.

Creating an account

1. Click Add Account
2. Enter a username (3--50 characters, alphanumeric with underscores, hyphens, or dots)
3. Enter an email address
4. Choose a role (if role-based access control is available on your plan):
   • Admin -- full access to all features and settings
   • Editor -- can manage specific resources based on assigned permissions
   • Viewer -- read-only access to domains, users, aliases, and logs
5. For Editor accounts, select which permissions to grant:
   • Domains, Users, Aliases, Services, Queue, DKIM, Backups
6. Set a password (or click Generate for a strong random password)
   • Must be at least 8 characters with uppercase, lowercase, number, and special character
7. Confirm the password and click to create the account

Managing accounts

Each account in the list shows the username, role badge, email, creation date, and last login time.

Available actions per account:

• Edit -- change username, email, role, or permissions
• Change Password -- set a new password for any account
• Delete -- permanently remove the account (requires typing the account's username to confirm)

You cannot edit or delete your own account from this page (to prevent accidental lockout).

Account limits

Your license determines how many admin accounts you can create. The current count and limit are shown next to the Add Account button. If you've reached the limit, the button is disabled with a message explaining the restriction.

AI

The AI tab configures the Gemini API key used for AI-powered features.

Setting up the API key

1. Get a Gemini API key from Google AI Studio
2. Navigate to Settings > AI
3. Paste your API key into the field
4. Click Save Key

A green indicator confirms when a key is configured. The key is encrypted at rest and never exposed in API responses.

What the API key enables

• AI Log Analysis -- automatic analysis of mail server logs every 4 hours to detect issues and provide recommendations
• AI Email Screening (cloud mode) -- AI-powered spam detection using the Gemini API

License

The License tab shows your current plan, resource usage, and lets you activate or change your license key.

Current plan

The top of the tab shows your active plan tier (Community, Pro, Business, or Enterprise) with the license email and expiry date if applicable.

Resource usage

Three usage bars show how much of your plan's allocation you're using:

Each bar shows current usage against the plan limit and turns yellow at 80% usage, red at 100%.

Activating a license

1. Paste your license key into the text area
2. Click Activate License

The dashboard validates the key, activates the associated plan features, and shows a confirmation. If the key is invalid or already activated on another server, you'll see an error message.

Changing or removing a license

• Change Key -- enter a new license key to switch plans
• Remove -- deactivates the current license and reverts to the Community plan. The license is freed for use on another server.

Plan comparison

A comparison table at the bottom shows what's included in each plan tier, with your current plan highlighted. This covers resource limits, administration features, security and compliance features, and scale and integration options.
