Adjusting pop/smtp usernames

[ep1p]

Hi,
I'm migrating users from an old custom platform to Plesk. We have some users setup for outbound smtp e-mail with some random usernames such as 'user@blah' or just 'user' (ie not FQDN). How can I add these users to plesk so they can continue to send e-mail without changing their usernames?

I don't want to change the usernames as that would require contacting each customer. If I can add the existing ones I can then just adjust the DNS for the hostname they use to point to Plesk and it will continue to work seemlessly.

Thanks,

john

Plesk accepts both:

username

and [email protected]

if the option to accept short mailnames is enabled in Global mail preferences. You must only create mailboxes with the name of the username. It is not technically possible to have a username different than the mailbox name.
