Setting a custom destination for a shared inbox

Choose your shared inbox destination inbox. Packages sent to the shared inbox are stored at this location. Only Faspex admins can set a custom inbox; shared inbox admins do not have this ability.

About this task

When using a custom inbox, packages sent to the shared inbox are first uploaded to the server-default storage location, and then relayed to the specified storage location. When packages are deleted from the default location, they are not automatically removed from the custom location.
Note: When symbolic links are enabled for a storage location, packages in the custom inbox location are stored as actual files, not symbolic links. The default inbox location contains symbolic links, but the custom inbox contains actual files.

Procedure

  1. Select a shared inbox and go to the Nodes and storage tab.
  2. Under inbox destination, select Custom.
  3. To upload directly to the specified storage location instead of first uploading to the server-default storage location, select Upload directly to custom inbox.
  4. Select a node from the table and select the storage location you want to use as the custom inbox.
  5. Click Save.
