Although installed as part of the base PMDF-MTA product, the PMDF
MessageStore is licensed separately. Sites without a license can create
up to ten MessageStore user accounts in addition to the
default account. A PMDF-MSGSTORE license is required to
create more than ten user accounts for the MessageStore.
2.3 Accounts
MessageStore accounts have the same basic profile information as
popstore accounts. Indeed, the same underlying data structure is used
to describe both MessageStore accounts and popstore accounts. That
structure is shown in Table 1-1. However, for MessageStore accounts
the message_count field of that structure is not used and
usually should have a value of zero.
Note in particular that the password security features described in Section 1.3.2.3 apply to both popstore and MessageStore accounts.
Note that in the MessageStore, the account name post is
reserved. It is the mailbox name associated with the store's collection
of public folders. For instance, a message for post+staff@host is
delivered to the public folder named "staff".
2.3.1 Account Naming
The MessageStore supports only one account naming scheme:
USERNAME_STYLE=3. When configuring the MessageStore, the
PMDF configuration utilities will select that naming scheme
automatically. See Section 1.3.1.1 for information on this naming scheme.
