A system and method automatically learns mailbox configuration conventions. The validator module (13) determines a valid set of configuration parameters (14) used for accessing an electronic mailbox of a user within a mail domain after receiving configuration information from the user that is limited in t he configuration parameters (14) required for accessing the electronic mailbox. A learner module (15) accepts from the validator module (13) a set of configuration parameters determined to be valid and generates configuration conventions (16) for a mail domain. A database store is the generated configuration conventions (16). The validator and learner modules can be operative as part of a web server.
