68 Message Security for Google Apps Administration Guide
To create a new Default User:
1. Create the user in the Google Apps Control Panel.
To identify it as a Default User, use a meaningful naming convention. The
system automatically recognizes names that begin with pdefault and
postinidefault as Default Users, for example, pdefaultSalesOrg or
postinidefaultStaffOrg.
Note: Default Users do not count toward your billing. The initial instance of a
user name that begins with pdefault or postinidefault is considered a
Default User and is not counted toward your billing. Subsequent instances of
those user names are counted toward your billing unless they are assigned to
orgs as Default Users.
2. Once Google Apps synchronizes that user with Message Security, move it to
the org for which you want it to serve as the Default User.
Assign a Default User to an Org
All organizations that contain users must be assigned a Default User. You do this
on the org’s General Settings page. You can assign the same Default User to
multiple orgs. All new users created in an org receive its Default User settings.
Note: A user does not become a Default User for which you are not billed until you
assign that user to an org. When you make that assignment, the Default User
becomes a template for other users, and is removed from billing.
To assign a Default User to an org:
1. Go to the Management page for the organization to which you want to assign
the Default User. For example, under Orgs and Users, locate the org in the
list, and click it.
2. On the org’s Management page, click General Settings.
3. On the General Settings page, enter the Default User’s address in the Default
User field, and click Save.
To remove a Default User from an org:
Clear the Default User field under General Settings, and click Save.
Do this only if the org is to contain no active users. You can clear several orgs’
Default User assignments at once using a Batch File command. See the
“Message Center Examples” in the “Examples of Common Tasks” chapter in the
Batch Reference Guide.
Delete a Default User
If a Default User is no longer in use, you can delete it. Do this only if the Default
User is not assigned to any organizations.
