Hi guys,

im still having the problem of owner@domain but ok i know where is the problem.

I use to call the server xxx.mydomain.tld and use to create the domain xxx.mysomain.tld for mrtg/phpsysinfo/other stuff so thats why those accounts doesnt work.

So, i would like to automatic forward (on user creation) the mail for owner@domain to the email i put in the form when i create a user.

Anyone should please help me find out a way (for sure should be a script in post_user_create.sh or something like that) to solve this?

Thanks in advance
 
I believe you can (on user creation) simply create a file at /home/USERNAME/.forward with contents of one line, that line being the address you want the email to be sent to.

And will forward only the email for owner@domain?

Thats nice, thanks a lot.

Do you know what is the variable for the email on user creation?

For what I call USERNAME. However, always check. It's old functionality left over from the days when each user on a text-based system could log in and forward his/her email anywhere.

No, I don't; hopefully someone else will.

ive made a FR for this.

I would ask to you that are expert about this, why the creation of the domain with same server name cause this issue? I mean, if i wanna add the domain but without email (i think is the ability to create email@servername the issue) should it work? If yes, where i can edit for let mail server dont notice that domain?

Thanks

Regards
 
It's a POSIX default since the first POSIX compliant operating systems were created. All users can get email. Originally there were no such things as virtual email accounts, only user accounts.

Linux and BSD are both POSIX compliant operating systems.

You should NOT do anything except forwards for them; lots of software (including cronjobs, for example) will simply break, because they expect to be able to send email to users.

Sorry but i didnt get what you meant.

When DA is just installed the mail user@domain automatically work, when the domain servername is created this stop to work, so, i suppose, there is some file that get created/edited that cause the break of the default working configuration for email user@domain.

Also maybe im on wrong way at asking, prolly poor english, but for example i paste one of the errors i got:

This is one of the frozen email i got everyday (in mail queue about 12 page each day):

*** Frozen (delivery error message)

The email [email protected] is the da login user @ user's own domain and the email get frozen.

Ok the email is a notice for email sent (prolly by user own forum) that say that recipient mailbox is not avaible.

But, my customer will never get this notice cause get frozen cause the email try to get send to [email protected] <[email protected]> (orange01.crazynetwork.it is ofc the server name).

I would just understand what modification the creation of the domain orange01.crazynetwork.it can create to the email system maybe i need to create an alias into directadmin for each server user on domain orange01.crazynetwork.it but... there should be another way i suppose.

Sorry for the long post, but i know you are the most indicated person to help me figure out this or at least understand why that happend :)

Best regards
 
Ive tryed to craete a .forward for a customer in his root /home/username/.forward with one line and that line is just the email address where to forward but is not working at all..
 
You might need to enable full loging in exim.conf and read logs, there might something mis-configured. I've never ever had a problem with .forward.

p.s. do you have a new line in the file after an email?
 
No, no new line.

This is from exim mainlog, but.. seems is working for here or am i wrong?

If is working for log so my customer didnt notice email was arriving or was in spamfolder maybe. Should be right?

Regards and thanks
 
I missed to ask a very main question, why do you think that forwarding is not working? How do you determine this?

p.s. try to add a new line.
 
Here an example from directadmin mail queue panel:
