• Our team is looking to connect with folks who use email services provided by Plesk, or a premium service. If you'd like to be part of the discovery process and share your experiences, we invite you to complete this short screening survey.

  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Issue Does changing hostname break local mail delivery?

New Pleskian
I have changed my server's hostname (using this guide) because I want to avoid system messages coming from root@localhost.localdomain. The change works, but now every message sent to root is bounced:

May 20 21:49:12 server postfix/smtp[30983]: 859B01008EA5: to=<root@localhost.localdomain>, orig_to=<root>, relay=none, delay=0.05, delays=0.03/0.02/0/0, dsn=5.4.6, status=bounced (mail for localhost.localdomain loops back to myself)​

Is there anything that I should change (e.g., in /var/spool/postfix/plesk/virtual.db) to make it work? Ideally, I would like to deliver all the local accounts mail to a virtual one (e.g., webmaster@mydomain.tld).
