• 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.

Need to change default Mailman subdomain name from "lists"

I would like to use the subdomain of "reports" rather than the PLESK default "lists" subdomain. I have tried to edit "/etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py" and also whenever I add a new mailing list under my domain it is automatically given the "lists.domain.com" format.

In other words, is there a force the Plesk/Mailman not to use http://lists.<domain.com>/mailman/ but use http://reports.<domain.com>/mailman/ for the Mailman interfaces? Is there a default template Plesk uses when a new mailing list (Mailman) is created which I can modify for the desired result?
 
I think it is DNS related question but not malman. There is lists DNS record will be created after adding maillist. Therefore you can just rename it to report in DNS records for domain.
 
OK, I guess that makes sense - but there has to be either a Plesk script controlling this setup or a DNS template in place which is creating the DNS entry. In my Plesk environment, I see some shell scripts and php pages related to mail list creation but obviously since they are part of Plesk they are encoded / encrypted and are not viewable.

Is there any way to override the default name when the Mailing List is created?
 
Brandon,

I have discussed with developers and they have confirmed that it is hardcoded and can be changed only with binaries patching. Therefore you can create request to Parallels Support Team if it is really critical for you.
