Configuring domain management for Zoom Mail


Account owners and admins can view and manage the mail domains they own from the Zoom web portal. They can add or edit a domain, view all their domains in a list, and view details for a specific domain. Additionally, account owners and admins can select a domain they want to enable for the Zoom Mail and Calendar service.

Accounts managing one or more associated domains can use those domains to create corresponding email domains for use with the Zoom Mail Service. Admins can control mailing group creation, mailbox size quotas, calendar access control, and mail auto-deletion and retention.
