Setting up BlueMind

Once BlueMind is installed on your Linux distribution, use your web browser to visit the set up page. Enter the following address (including https): https://your.mail.server/setup.

Then let the wizard guide you through installation:

  1. Prerequisites check:

A warning may appear when the server has been assigned the minimum memory required. This is merely a non-blocking warning as a result of memory calculation, setup can go on regardless.

If an issue blocking installation is detected, a red error message appears and the "Continue" button is unavailable.

  1. BlueMind URL: enter your public BlueMind url and click "Test access" to validate. If all tests are successful, the "Next" button is enabled:

  1. Domain name:
  2. Installation is complete and the application's connection details are displayed:

  3. Restart BlueMind service:

    bmctl restart

On a production installation, passwords for the admin (admin@bluemind.lan in this instance) and admin0 (admin0@global.virt) must be changed.

Unsecured passwords may be used maliciously to access all your server data or use your server to send SPAM via the SMTP service. 

Subscription

If you have a BlueMind subscription, you must now install it to enjoy related tools. You will then be able to deploy the Outlook connector for your users or the ActiveDirectory plugin.
