This topic provides information on creating the
shadow mailbox. The shadow mailbox is a special mailbox that ELA uses
to distribute messages. The use of a shadow mailbox prevents replies to
ELA-delivered messages from being sent back to the entire enhanced list.
The shadow mailbox must belong to a community that cannot receive messages.
To create the shadow mailbox:
- Start at the Messaging Administration main menu and select . Enter your login.
The system then displays the AUDIX Command Prompt screen.
- At the
enter
command: prompt, enter add subscriber.
The system displays the
Subscriber screen, Page 1.
- For the Name
field, enter a name that is useful to your subscribers, such as "Mailing
List" or Enhanced-Lists Postmaster."
- For the
Extension field, enter an
unused extension at which you want the shadow mailbox to be located.
Make sure that this extension is not administered as a station on the
switch.
- For the
COS field, enter
the ELA class-of-service name or number (the example uses 8).
- In the
Community ID field,
enter the number of the shadow mailbox community you created (the example
uses 11).
- Press F3
(Enter) to save this information to the system database.
