I'm planning to realize a server farm with 5 server which are all dns, mail, ftp, and web servers.

Instead of installing webmail lite to all 5 servers i'd like to install it to just one server and select on the login to which mailserver i want to connect.

Is it possible to define multiple mailservers and select the appropriate one when accessing the webmail client?

Thanks :)

WebMail Lite is designed for accessing a single mail server, usually running on the same machine WebMail itself is installed on. And even in the Pro edition, the task you've described wouldn't be a trivial one. In the Pro, the server to be accessed is determined based on the domain part of the email address, so it's assumed that different mailservers serve different email domains.

Looks like the only way to have this approach implemented is to use integration API. That way, you can have your own login form created per your requirements, check LoginToAccountEx method for advanced login implementation. But even in that case, keep in mind that hostname information is recorded in the database and overrides the details submitted on login, so the approach is going to work with the particular email account for the first login only, and subsequent logins will reuse the information submitted on first one.
