  • Account Status - The status of the mailbox account
    • Enabled - The mailbox is fully active and available
    • Disabled - The mailbox is fully disabled and cannot send or receive mail and may not login to the webmail interface. Incoming email is rejected / bounced
    • Disabled With Mail - The mailbox is disabled and cannot send or receive mail and may not login to the webmail interface. Incoming email is accepted and stored
