Recommended Default User Settings

Before configuring a Default User, please note:

Configure a Default User before assigning it to a hierarchy. The
configuration of a Default User only affects users as they are added to an org.
Changes to the Default User do not affect users already in the org. If you
reconfigure the Default User and want those settings to apply to existing
users in the org, you must update each of those users’ settings separately,
either one-by-one in the Administration Console, or by using Batch. See the
“Message Center Examples” in the “Examples of Common Tasks” chapter in
the Batch Reference Guide.

Changing a Default User’s settings affects all orgs to which that Default
User is assigned. If you want to have unique settings for an org, create a
unique Default User and assign it to that org.

Do not use a Default User as an account for quarantine redirect. The
Default User is designed only as a configuration template and not intended for
mail flow.

Don’t disable Message Center Access for a Default User. Disable the
Message Center at the org level, instead (see “Enable / Disable Message
Center Access” on page 135)
. See below for other recommendations.
