hey guys,

I've got a question. I'm trying to find a way to get plesk to recognize an email address I want to set up.

the domain however should NOT be added to plesk. basically, I dont need anything from that domain, except 1 email forwarder and I obviously dont want to waste a domain license for that.

any idea how I could acchieve this?
 
If you do all the changes manually (not thru the Plesk control panel), then you would need to modify the bind/named files, qmail control files, setup the /var/qmail paths and create the .qmail file for that user. The bind/named (named.conf and zone file for that domain) files you'd want to edit/create them and keep backup copies once it's working since Plesk will overwrite them when other changes are made in the CP.
 
ok. too much hassle.

I think I'll just force people to use my new address then.
