Manage the rights of a kMail user

This guide explains how to modify the permissions so that the user of an email address in kMail can manage more or fewer configuration elements (change of password, implementation of an alias, etc. see below for the full list).

When and why?

The email address is first created in an Email Service then it can be used in one or more kMail (Infomaniak webmail) interfaces by one or more users.

However, the creator (or administrator) of the address may want to limit the possible actions for one or other user of the email address.

These permissions can be managed when creating the address or later, and you can also define which ones should be default rights for any new address created (read General configuration below).
