Advanced Configurations
=======================

Congratulations on completing the `Setup Guide <setup-guide.html>`_!

If you're an experienced mailserver admin, then you probably know what you want
to do next. Our How-to guides (accessible in the navigation sidebar)
might help you accomplish your goals. If not, consider contributing a guide!

If this is your first mailserver, consider the following:

- Configure regular, automatic `backups <backup-guide.html>`_.
- Enable `fulltext search <fts.html>`_ to let clients that don’t sync all
  mail efficiently find messages, by performing searches directly on the server.
- Set up the `Sender Rewriting Scheme`_ if you rely on server-side mail
  forwarding to external mail servers using mail forwards or Sieve rules.
- Contribute `DMARC reports`_ and `SMTP TLS reports`_ to help improve email
  security across the internet by sending feedback on authentication failures,
  spoofing attempts, and TLS encryption issues.
