2.3 Configuring the AMES domain
For each new domain, one generic user is created (see "The catch-all user" - page 12) and
the
mail delivery is set to the currently used mail server. This means, you can start using
AMES without any further configuration and the email flow will not be interrupted.
Normally, your partner carries out the domain configuration for you, but if for some reason
you need to do this yourself, we'll guide you in the process.
The Domain status assistant
After logging in to AMES, click the
Services tab in the Domain overview.
The Domain status link opens the 5-step domain activation assistant, which shows the
status of each step and eventually displays instructions to complete them:
1. Domain validation
2. Mail server delivery
3. DNS settings
