  • 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.

using wildcards in email addresses with qmail (DV server w/ plesk 8.6)

I'm trying to set up an email address in qmail such that a unique identifier can be passed as part of the email address.

For example:

reply-123@example.com, reply-345@example.com, reply-99999@example.com would all go to the 'reply' user and be sent to the same shell script. Currently, email sent to reply@example.com goes to the script and I pass the unique id in the subject or message body. I have added both a .qmail and .qmail-default file in the ~/var/qmail/mailnames/domain.com/reply/ directory. However, all email sent to reply-nnn@mydomain.com gets rejected with 550 - mailbox not found. I've checked permissions, read the guides and manuals - it seems like this should work. I suspect that the assign file may have something to do with this but I can't edit it as Plesk always overwrites my edits.

Is there something I'm missing to get this working on Plesk? I'm working on a Mediatemple DV server with Plesk 8.6.0. Thanks!

How it should work: http://www.lifewithqmail.org/ see section 4.1.5. extension addresses
 
Sorry Art

Sorry ArtH,

I really am not sure. Maybe you should send a PM to one of the admin or moderators here? I can see you're not getting an answer...

Thanks Raven,

Really appreciate that someone who knows what they're talking about finally responded! On a different note, anybody know anything about fixing a headrest dvd player? Love to hear from you if so!
