CHAP 1: ZIMBRA SERVER ESSENTIALS
Zimbra mailbox servers cannot see, read, or write to another
Zimbra server. In a Zimbra single server environment, all services are on one
server, and during installation the computer is configured to partition the
disk to accommodate each of the services.
The Zimbra server is a dedicated server that manages all of the
mailbox contents, including messages, contacts, calendar, and attachments.
In addition to content management, the Zimbra mailbox server has
dedicated volumes for backup and log files.
From the zimbra MTA server
the message is received and then sent any filters. Messages are then indexed
and deposited into the correct mailbox.
The own storage volumes is only seen in the system by zimbra
mailbox server.
The Zimbra LDAP and Zimbra MTA services can be
installed on separate servers in Zimbra multi-server environment
