Admin Console
The Admin Console is a the web interface that administrators use to manage Xeams. A built-in web server listens on a predefined port (5272 by default) for incoming client connections. Administrators as well as normal users connect to Admin Console using their browser.Admin Console can be used for:
- Starting embedded servers like SMTP, POP3 and IMAP
- Managing users
- Modifying junk filtering rules
- Monitoring in-coming and out-going emails
- Searching emails received in the past
Type of users in Xeams
Users in Xeams play one of the three roles listed below:
- Super user - The main administration of the server. The user playing this role can change every configuration parameter in Xeams. This user can create domain admins and accounts for the end-user.
- Domain admin - This user is only valid if you have multiple-domain configuration enabled. A super user can delegate configuration for one or more domains to a different person. This user can only modify configuration parameters and filtering rule for the assigned domain.
- End-user - This role is played by users who receive and send emails. When someone logs in as a normal end-user he/she can view their emails and modify filtering rules that only apply to them. For example, adding and removing email addresses from white/black list.

This relates to security of admin console as well insufficeint logs for the entire system. I can't find a log where I could find if someone was trying to log on the admin console with incorrect password. If someone tried broot force loging into any account using admin console how would the administrator know about such attempt or if they suceeded. Will admin console lockout the attacker for period of time or permanently if incorrect password is used several time? Would the administrator receive a warning email if brute force attack on the admin console was taking place.
At a log of such activity would be usefull.
Not related to admin console but rather to general log deficiency in Xeams a log of raw SMTP communications activity would be an asstet.

Please add a mention of which port the admin console runs on. I had to find out using netstat, as I could find no mention of the port anywhere.
