Using Postfix Admin
Login
Before you can do anything with Postfix Admin (PA) you must login with the admin information for your domain. we suggest opening the postfix admin link in a separate window and following along with these instructions.
- Your admin email (example@mydomain.com).
- Your password.
Basic menu options
At the top of the screen, under the Covisp.net header, you will see:

Below that you will see a concise listing of what each option does:

Some important things to point out:
- If you are administrator for multiple domains, the Overview link will allow you to view each domain, one at a time.
- You create an Alias if you want an email address where the mail is forwarded on to another email address. For example, if your mail addressed to "internationalsales@mydomain.tld" should be delivered to "bob@largeISP.Net" you would want an alias.
- Mailboxes are for setting up email address that will be checked directly without being forwarded on to somwhere else.
