I noticed that there's no option for Mail Domain Alias. It's possible to make a catch all for domains, and just have them sent to another domain. However, there's no way to alias email domains; and catch-alls are horrible when it comes to spam. Peace, Kelly Shutt
help! Is there a solution to this? maybe a workaround? I am wanting to deploy ISPconfig3 but I really must have domain aliases to do this. I am hoping to not have to go down to ISPconfig2 as I really like the multiple server management! Thanks for any help in advance..
There is no mail domain alias, but there are the email aliases which you can use to do the same. Just create an alias for every email address of the other domain that you need.
wow is this an option in ISPconfig2? I have over 600 email accounts, dont really want to build 600 aliases. Also want some canonical mapping which doesnt seem to have an option. suppose the idea is to just do an alias there too which makes 1200 aliases for 600 email accounts. owe...
any body have an idea? Any idea on how to do this in postfix outside of ispconfig3? something in postfix maybe? What I'm trying to do is have my-site.com = mysite.com without doing a per user alias. does ISPconfig2 do domain aliases?
canonical maps? If I did this with a canonical map that said @my-domain.com @mydomain.com Would ISPconfig mess with the canonical file? in main.cf add and in /etc/postfix/canonical add and then
You can do this either with the canonical file or virtual_alias_domains: http://www.postfix.org/VIRTUAL_README.html both will not be changed by the current ispconfig version.
some clarification Till, can you give an example of this? When I read the link I see: but it is not clear on where or how to make a domain alias, just how to make catch all addresses or virtual aliases to users. is it as simple as /etc/postfix/main.cf: virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtualdomains /etc/postfix/virtualdomains: @my-domain.com @mydomain.com postmap /etc/postfix/virtualdomains any help would be appreciated. This is really the only issue I have with ISPconfig3. Thanks
Just a point to note, to get canonical or virtual addresses working in postfix with a simple @domain.com points to @domain.co.uk is a real pain in the bottom. The best guide I found was: http://www.sysdesign.ca/guides/postfix_virtual.html But this still relies on pointing to a USER. Not fun when there are 10s or 100s of mailboxes needing mapping. Canonical mapping didn't seem to work, despite reading lots of documentation on it (a nice howto like the link above wouldn't go a-miss). I only use ISPConfig for web/db hosting but one client couldn't connect to my hMailserver host, and they just happened to have tons of mailboxes (lucky me). As soon as a way can be implemented to get ISPConfig using virtual email domains, I think it would be well used by many.
I am talking about version 3 mate. As per the previous posts, just adding a 2nd domain to automatically map all the mailboxes to the target domain DOES NOT exist in ISP Config (yet). It is on bugtracker: http://bugtracker.ispconfig.org/ind...=505&project=3&opened=80&status[0]=&pagenum=3
are there any objections to using table = ( select source, destination, server_id, active from mail_forwarding where type in ('forward', 'alias') union select concat(substring_index(u.source,_utf8'@',1),a.source) as source, u.destination as destination, u.server_id as serverid, u.active as active from mail_forwarding a JOIN mail_forwarding u where (a.destination = substr(u.source,(locate(_utf8'@',u.source) )) and a.type = 'aliasdomain' and u.type in ('forward', 'alias') and a.active = 'y' and a.server_id = 1) union select concat(substring_index(u.email,_utf8'@',1),a.source) as source, u.email as destination, u.server_id as serverid, case u.disabledeliver when 'y' then 'n' else 'y' end as active from mail_forwarding a JOIN mail_user u where (a.destination = substr(u.email,(locate(_utf8'@',u.email) )) and type = 'aliasdomain' and a.active = 'y' and a.server_id = 1)) mail_domain_alias_2300 ( one single line ) in mysql-virtual_forwardings.cf ?
Hi Taleman, glad you replied, configuring an E-Mail Domain Alias solved my problem ( using of course V 3.1.15p3 )...
