    Hi i had a xyx.com domain with some user emails. I delete this domain(also in the recyclebin:all the recyclebin:site,dns manager) and create a new one . All work fine, i can receive-send mail, ftp access, access to the web.
    But, i was looking the mailog and i saw a lot of activity of the user mail that i delete, al sending an email to [email protected]ldomain, what this can be? is this a problem? solution?

    What are the exact entries? Could it be a external server is still trying to deliver a mail to a no longer existing user? If that's the case, it will eventually stop (normally after 4-5 days)

    i dont think so, because i dont have a public dns for mail, im working with the dns server of my server (test state) . I access to the webpages and services, manually( I put the ip of my server, as a primary dns in the computer client)

    The emails to [email protected]ldomain are status/usage emails. They contain info about how much traffic a user generates. After processing (updating some info in the ISPConfig database) the status emails to admispconfig are /dev/nulled.

    If you deleted the user before all status info had been written/processed, I assume You're in some sort of loop. I'd try to re-create the same user and watch the log files if sending messages stops (eventually). Then delete the user again.

    i will try, but i dont why also i have emails from the new domain users but with old domain, for example my old domain was @xyz.com, and the new one is @yyy.com, i have working a [email protected], but also in the log i see some emails from [email protected] to [email protected]l. Why this? if i create the new user domain before erase the old domain(including the emails users)

    That's the intended behaviour. These mails contain the size of received emails in bytes so that ISPConfig can create mail statistics.

    Plis help, yesterday i get a lot of undelivery message to INBOX,from a user of my new domain but with a old domain, also i have a lot of message from the user of the old domain to a [email protected]ldomain.
    For example, i had a old domain for test, www.xyz.com, with users f.e: [email protected]. I delete this domain and create a new one: www.dag.com.pa with a [email protected] user. Now in the maillog i have a lot of mails from [email protected] to [email protected]ldomain(why? i delete all the users and domain) also today when i saw my INBOX, i have a lot of undelivery mail, saying that a mail to earan@[B][COLOR="Red"]xyz.com[/COLOR][/B] couldnt be delivery. Why this? I have others user of dag.com.pa and also all have this undelivery message. Also the others users of xyz.com send a lot of mail to [email protected]ldomain
