Configure each screen with your desired client settings and MDaemon will push those settings to the corresponding client screens as necessary, each time an MC user connects to the server. The MC Client Settings are only sent to clients when one of the settings has changed since the last time the client connected and received them. If the option below to &quot;<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\" style=\"font-style: italic;\">Allow MC users to override pushed settings<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">&quot; is enabled, users can override any pushed settings on their individual clients. If that option is disabled, then all of the client screens are locked; MC users can make no changes.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_BodyText\"><span class=\"f_BodyText\">To allow for certain settings that must be different for each user or domain, MC Client Settings supports macros such as <\/span><span class=\"f_PlainText\">\$USERNAME\$<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">, <\/span><span class=\"f_PlainText\">\$EMAIL\$<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">, and <\/span><span class=\"f_PlainText\">\$DOMAIN\$<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">. These macros will be converted to data specific to the user or domain when pushing settings to a client. Take care not to place any static values in any fields that should use a macro, such as putting something like &quot;Frank Thomas&quot; in the Your Name field. To do so would cause every MC user who connects to MDaemon to have his or her name set to &quot;Frank Thomas.&quot; For your convenience there is a Macro Reference button on the <a href=\"outlook_connector_client_general.html\" class=\"topiclink\">General<\/a> screen, which displays a simple list of the supported macros.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_BodyText\"><span class=\"f_BodyText\">For those using MDaemon Private Cloud (MDPC), there is another MC Client Settings dialog on the <a href=\"domain-manager.html\" class=\"topiclink\">Domain Manager<\/a>, for controlling the MDaemon Connector client settings on a per domain basis.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_BodyText\"><span class=\"f_BodyText\">This feature is disabled by default and is only supported in MDaemon Connector client version 4.0.0 or higher.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_DialogSectionHeading\" style=\"page-break-after: avoid;\"><span class=\"f_DialogSectionHeading\">MC Client Settings<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_ControlHeading\" style=\"page-break-after: avoid;\"><span class=\"f_ControlHeading\">Push client settings to MC users<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_ControlIndent\"><span class=\"f_ControlIndent\">Enable this option if you wish to push the preconfigured settings on the MC Client Settings screens to your MC users whenever they connect. The MC Client Settings are only sent to clients when one of the settings has changed since the last time the client connected and received them. This option is disabled by default.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_ControlHeading2\" style=\"page-break-after: avoid;\"><span class=\"f_ControlHeading2\">Allow MC users to override pushed settings<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_ControlIndent2\"><span class=\"f_ControlIndent2\">If this option is enabled, users can override any of the pushed settings on their individual clients. If it is disabled, all of the client screens are locked; MDaemon Connector users can make no changes.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<div style=\"text-align: left; text-indent: 0; padding: 0 0 0 0; margin: 0 3.0625rem 0.8750rem 3.0000rem;\"><table style=\"background-color:#ffffe6; border:solid thin #000000; border-spacing:0;\">\n\r<tr>\n\r<td style=\"vertical-align:top; width:3.1250rem; height:3.1250rem; padding:0.3125rem; border:none\"><p class=\"p_NoFormat\"><img style=\"margin:0;width:3.1250rem;height:3.1250rem;border:none\" src=\".\/images\/lightbulb_on_50_yback.gif\"\/><\/p>\n\r<\/td>\n\r<td style=\"vertical-align:top; padding:0.3125rem; border:none\"><p class=\"p_Notes\"><span class=\"f_Notes\">Allowing users to override pushed settings will not prevent the server from pushing future changes to the clients. For example, if a user changes one of his MDaemon Connector settings and then the administrator makes some change to one of the MC Client Settings screens on the server, all of the MC Client Settings will be pushed to that user\'s client the next time it connects to the server. Therefore even the setting that the user had previously overridden will be changed to match the settings on the server.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<\/td>\n\r<\/tr>\n\r<\/table>\n\r<\/div>\n\r<p class=\"p_CenteredHLine\" style=\"border-right: none; border-bottom: none; border-left: none;\"><span class=\"f_CenteredHLine\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\r<h3 class=\"p_Heading3\" style=\"page-break-after: avoid;\"><span class=\"f_Heading3\">Automatically Discovering MC Settings<\/span><\/h3>\n\r<p class=\"p_BodyText\"><span class=\"f_BodyText\">When first configuring<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\"> MDaemon Connector on the client, users can click the &quot;<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\" style=\"font-style: italic;\">Test &amp; Get Account Settings<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">&quot; button on the General screen after entering their <\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\" style=\"font-style: italic;\">User Name<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\"> and <\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\" style=\"font-style: italic;\">Password<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">. This causes MDaemon Connector to attempt to validate the credentials and automatically retrieve the Server Information for the account.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_BodyText\"><span class=\"f_BodyText\">To connect to the server, first the client will try common FQDN values. For IMAP, it tries to authenticate to <\/span><span class=\"f_PlainText\">mail.&lt;domain&gt;<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\"> (e.g. <\/span><span class=\"f_PlainText\">mail.example.com<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">) using the dedicated SSL port, then the non-SSL port with TLS. If that doesn\'t succeed then it will repeat the same process for <\/span><span class=\"f_PlainText\">imap.&lt;domain&gt;<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">, then <\/span><span class=\"f_PlainText\">&lt;domain&gt;<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">, and finally, <\/span><span class=\"f_PlainText\">imap.mail.&lt;domain&gt;<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">. If all attempts fail then unencrypted sign-in is attempted for those same locations.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_BodyText\"><span class=\"f_BodyText\">For SMTP, it tries <\/span><span class=\"f_PlainText\">mail.&lt;domain&gt;<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\"> using port 587, 25, and then 465, first using SSL and then TLS. This is repeated for <\/span><span class=\"f_PlainText\">smtp.&lt;domain&gt;<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">, <\/span><span class=\"f_PlainText\">&lt;domain&gt;<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">, and then <\/span><span class=\"f_PlainText\">smtp.mail.&lt;domain&gt;<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">. If all attempts fail then unencrypted sign-in is attempted for those same locations.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_BodyText\"><span class=\"f_BodyText\">If MDaemon Connector is able to successfully authenticate then the incoming and outgoing server information along with the SSL\/TLS information is configured automatically.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_SeeAlso\" style=\"page-break-after: avoid; border-right: none; border-bottom: none; border-left: none;\"><span class=\"f_SeeAlso\">See:<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_SeeAlsoLinks\" style=\"page-break-after: avoid;\"><span class=\"f_SeeAlsoLinks\"><a href=\"outlook_connector_options.html\" class=\"topiclink\">MC Server Settings » Settings<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_SeeAlsoLinks\" style=\"page-break-after: avoid;\"><span class=\"f_SeeAlsoLinks\"><a href=\"outlook_connector_accounts.html\" class=\"topiclink\">MC Server Settings » Accounts<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_SeeAlsoLinks\" style=\"page-break-after: avoid;\"><span class=\"f_SeeAlsoLinks\"><a href=\"outlook_connector_client_general.html\" class=\"topiclink\">MC Client Settings » General<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_ControlIndent\"><span class=\"f_ControlIndent\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\r"
