Dashboard
The dashboard gives global admins a quick count of domains, users, aliases, lists, and admins, then exposes export actions without forcing a trip through database tooling.
Feature tour
Features
MxCentral gives iRedMail operators a practical browser control plane for the day-to-day work that normally crosses SQL tables, Postfix maps, Amavisd policy, iRedAPD settings, quarantine data, Fail2ban records, and SOGo branding.
Control surface
A focused interface for the iRedMail areas admins actually maintain.
The screenshots below show how MxCentral organizes mailbox administration, policy controls, quarantine, DNS checks, and SOGo/webmail branding into direct operational screens. Click any image to inspect the full-size screenshot.
What the feature set covers
Domains, users, aliases, mailing lists, domain admins, forwarding, DKIM and DNS checks, quarantine review, throttling, sender mismatch exceptions, unauthenticated sender approvals, silent discard maps, Fail2ban visibility, decryptable password controls, and SOGo/webmail integration.
Screenshots
Feature-by-feature walkthrough.
Each screen keeps the underlying iRedMail responsibility visible, so operators can tell whether they are changing database records, mail policy, DNS evidence, service settings, or webmail branding.
Domains
Create and edit hosted domains with descriptions, transports, mailbox and alias limits, quota values, Backup MX state, and staging controls that temporarily hold inbound mail during migrations.
Users
Manage mailbox accounts with domain selection, display names, quota limits, password changes, and per-user services such as mail, POP3, IMAP, sieve, and webmail access.
Aliases
Build address aliases and catch-all forwarding rules from a single screen, with clear destination lists and domain scoping for hosted address management.
Forwarding
Configure forwarding destinations, decide whether to keep local mailbox delivery, manage backup addresses, and toggle service availability for an account without editing SQL by hand.
Mailing lists
Create and maintain mailing lists with owner, moderator, member, access-policy, description, and maximum message size controls in the same admin surface as users and domains.
Domain admins
Assign administrator accounts to specific domains so delegated admins can manage their own users and aliases while global settings remain reserved for global admins.
DKIM and DNS
Generate DKIM material through the privileged helper, show the exact DNS record operators need to publish, and verify MX, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC state from the domain workflow.
Quarantine
Review quarantined spam, virus, banned, bad-header, and bad-MIME messages, filter by recipient or domain, inspect evidence, and remove selected records when they are no longer needed.
Throttling
Create throttle rules for an account or domain with inbound/outbound direction, time period, maximum message size, message count, and cumulative size limits.
Sender mismatch
Manage iRedAPD sender-login mismatch exceptions with visible generated settings, plugin state, Postfix restriction state, and the list of allowed accounts.
Send without SMTP auth
Authorize selected senders or trusted IP ranges for unauthenticated SMTP flows, while showing the relevant iRedAPD and Postfix state before changes are saved.
Silent discard recipients
Maintain a managed recipient discard map for addresses such as no-reply mailboxes, with Postfix map checks and helper-mediated writes before reload.
Fail2ban
Review blocked IP addresses with jail, country, log evidence, status, and optional helper-mediated unban actions without switching to server shell commands.
Decryptable password storage
Control optional encrypted mailbox password storage, inspect whether the feature is enabled, trigger schema changes deliberately, and surface upgrade-check state in the same settings area.
SOGo branding
Set the SOGo login image path, logo override colors, current image state, and template override behavior through the same privileged-helper model used for mail service files.
Webmail login
Connect the admin control plane to the user-facing SOGo login experience so hosted mail users see a consistent branded entry point.
SOGo inbox
MxCentral keeps SOGo as the webmail client. Operators can link users to webmail while MxCentral handles administration, policy, and server-side management.
