My SQL User Database
- KoruMail is capable of verifying the validity of users by referring to a 'MySQL User Database' located on a remote server.
- If the recipient is not a valid user then email is rejected in SMTP level. Since the sophisticated filtering process is not used for invalid recipients, KoruMail's resources are not wasted.
- The 'MySQL User Database profiles' added here are available for selection in interfaces such as 'Managed Domains > Routes'.
- To open the 'MySQL User Database' screen, click the 'SMTP' tab on the left menu and click 'LDAP/DB' then 'MySQL User Database'.
