User's can access WebMail using the default URLs:
http://IP:32000/mail
or
http://hostname:32000/mail
where IP is an IP address of the server where Merak is running and hostname is a DNS A record which is pointing to the IP address.
Alternatively, as an administrator, you can access WebMail via localhost instead of hostname or 127.0.0.1 instead of the IP address if you wish to access it directly from the machine where Merak WebMail is running.
PDA Clients can access WebMail via the same URL by adding "/pda" at the end. i.e. http://hostname:32000/mail/pda There is a special skin developed for PDA Clients using this extension.
You can change these URLs allowing your users access to WebMail via e.g. http://webmail.yourdomain.com These changes are described in sections:
How to Set Virtual Hosts
How to Run WebMail in Power Pack without 32000 in the URL
Should a user type these URLs in his/her browser, the login page will be shown and user can fill in their username and password.
