mail domain does not match domain

Hi,

I'm new to virtualmin, and looking forward for guidance.

I'm creating few virtual servers, but with administrative account of each server changed to match account number for billing purpose. the trouble is, when virtual server create new email user, the domain change to the server's admin account.

eg. virtual server example.org with administrative account h000911 When i created new mail account, the mail account will be "user_name.h000911" instead of "user_name.example"

i also having trouble logging in from pop account.

please advise.

best regards,

The solution here is to open the 'Advanced options' section on the Create Virtual Server page, and set the 'Prefix for mail usernames' to the first part of the domain name. This defaults to the username, but by making this change you can override it. You can then use the account number for the username.

Also, for POP3, make sure you login with the full username, like user_name.h000911 instead of just user_name

so i must delete the virtual server and recreate it??

Yes - or if you haven't added any users yet, you can go to the Edit Virtual Server page for the domain and change the 'Mailbox name suffix' field. There is no way currently to make this change to existing mailboxes..
