Introduction

The Email Domain serves a number of purposes. Providing a Domain is a required part of providing email functionality within some of the Hornbill applications. Hornbill includes SMTP services to manage both inbound and outbound mail. The Email Domain configuration lets you define which domains are accepted by the Hornbill instance and provides outbound routing modes for each domain.

Features
