ISPConfig User & EMail Question

    I have installed ISPConfig 2.3.2 onto a server running UBUNTU 6.06
    and have found that when in 'User & Email' 'Add User' form that the domain after the 'mailbox-name' & '@' is not just 'giganetwireless.com' as it should be.

    Rather I am offered three options two being identical to one-another:
    1) @www.giganetwireless.com
    2) @www.gowireless.giganetwireless.com
    3) @www.giganetwireless.com

    How would I make the proper domain option show up rather than what I have?

    Thanks

    Did you add giganetwireless.com as a Co-Domain to that web site?

    Thank you for the reply Falko

    No I did not add it as a co-domain.
    I just assumed that only pertained to subdomains at this point...

    Once I am allowed to re-add my domain to ISPConfig I will add giganetwireless.com as a co-domain definately.

    Could you share any incite as to why when a domain is deleted from ISPConfig, the client, all Trash emptied, ALL DNS records deleted, Trash emtptied, validated that there was no existance of giganetwireless.com anywhere in '/etc/bind' contents.
    However after adding myself as a client once again and then trying to re-add my domain ISPConfig tells me that domain is in use by another account??

    I appreciate your help very much...


    Regards Falko

    Many Thanks

    Did you empty all recycle bins?

    ALL Recycle Bins Were Emptied

    Thanks for the reply Falko...

    Yeah I went through virtually each and every 'Recycle Bin' found in ISPConfig- Management, ISP Manager, DNS Manager, ISP Invoice!

    Everything was empty, ISPConfig 3.2.3 would not allow re-addition of once deleted domains.
    Maybe a bug of 3.2.3 maybe also 2.2.16????

    At either rate I had found that I screwed up bad by installing 3.2.3 BETA [UNSTABLE] onto what is to be a production machine!

    So last night I ran the uninstall program of 3.2.3 and then re-installed 2.2.16. Not sure if that fixes any issues with re-adding once deleted domains but it is the stable version of ISPConfig ;)

    I don't want to experiment with trying to delete and add a domain at this point but if I run up against this issue again with this version I will assume it to be a bug, I see no other possiblities.

    I have managed to get my server to come Online and the domain www.giganetwireless.com is available.

    I just can't figure out why 'mail.giganetwireless.com' is un-pingable.

    Made sure to set 'giganetwireless.com' as a Co-domain using the following values:
    Code:
    IP: 72.169.152.211  
    Host:  
    Domain: giganetwireless.com
    Any input would be greatly appreciated Falko

    Thank you

    Regards

    Thank you Falko

    I found out where my error was!
    ISPConfig after setting up new accounts enters these values into NS1 & NS2 in the Options tab of DNS Management for each client, just changed those and all was good for being able to ping 'mail.giganetwireless.com'
    Code:
    Name Server 1: www.giganetwireless.com
    Name Server 2: www.giganetwireless.com
    Thanks much

    Enabling Maildir with PostFix and ISPConfig

    OK I have enabled 'Maildir' within => Management => Server => Settings => Email.

    Using ThunderBird I can press 'Retrieve Email' and password acceptance is OK...

    The server says there is no email, even though I sent one to this address from a Yahoo account as a test.


    Also, if I attempt to send an email outwards from the server I am perpetually prompted for the email account password which never ever succeeds!

    What should I check to enable proper function to the email server?

    Thanks for your help :)

    Regards

    Any errors in your mail log? What's in /etc/postfix/main.cf?

    Please comment out
    Code:
    relay_domains = hash:/etc/postfix/relay-host-names
    in min.cf and restart Postfix.

    I think the main problem is your MX record, as I posted in your other thread.

    Thank you Falko...

    It has been commented out now and I restarted PostFix

    Code:
    relay_domains = hash:/etc/postfix/relay-host-names

    I will look through SF forums to see if an article is posted with a solution to my present problem of the server not allowing me to send email out- it won't authenticate my president <at> giganetwireless <dot> com address password with resepct to outgoing email???

    Thank you Falko
