When setting up MS Outlook to receive e-mail, your configuration instructions clearly show the un & pw for listed mailboxes on the domain, however, for the \"Postmaster\" account, listed at the top of the mailbox accounts, what is the un & pw? I am the webmaster, but can't seem to log onto the server to receive \"Postmaster\" mail.

That postmaster email is only used, I believe, in case of an emergency. That field only designates the postmaster address, it does not actually setup the mailbox. You can simply add, if you want, the 'postmaster' alias to any of the existing mailboxes, or have it point to an offsite address. I think in the beginning this was setup to send virus alerts, etc - but not used much anymore for anything I dont believe. It's mainly so we can contact someone offsite just in case.
