Cannot login to webmail with user@domain

[gbjbaanb]

Hi.

I have a problem with my webmail. I cannot log in with username@domainname, only with username.

This, I'm informed, is wrong.

I've looked at my webmail inc/config.php and it appears to require just user login for the one-for-all server type. I think this should be different, but I'm not sure what the config should be, and in any case, if my config is wrong, then DA is installing the wrong one.

I am running Centos4.2 64-bit, Apache2, Dovecot and the latest Uebimaiu that I reinstalled today (2.7.9)

DirectAdmin has two types of mailboxes.

The first type is the user mailbox. That's based on the username that owns the domain name. To log into that username, you just use username, without the "@example.com".

The second type is the domain mailbox. That's totally independent of linux usernames, and to log into the mailbox you use [email protected].

Is it possible that you show the domainname in the login box.
So when enter www.domainname.com/webmail or www.domainname.com/squirrelmail that in login box already '@domainname.com' is filled in?

The server is shared so there are more accounts on the server.

thx

You'd have to rewirte the webmail program; at least the part of it that manages the mainpage.

It would have to read the http header to get the domain name, and then fill it in as a default entry. And also move the cursor to the beginning of the box, before the @ sign. I'm not sure if that's possible.
