• The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • Debian 11 has reached its end-of-life (vendor EOL date - August 31, 2026). Plesk Obsidian 18.0.81 is the last release to support it.
    If you are running Plesk Obsidian on Debian 11, we recommend you upgrade those servers to Debian 12 using our dist-upgrade tool.
  • We plan to deprecate and remove the support for XML RPC protocol versions earlier than 1.6.9.1 in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.82. We strongly recommend that you update all existing integrations using earlier versions of the XML RPC protocol to comply with the version 1.6.9.1 specification.

Need to change default Mailman subdomain name from "lists"

I would like to use the subdomain of "reports" rather than the PLESK default "lists" subdomain. I have tried to edit "/etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py" and also whenever I add a new mailing list under my domain it is automatically given the "lists.domain.com" format.

In other words, is there a force the Plesk/Mailman not to use http://lists.<domain.com>/mailman/ but use http://reports.<domain.com>/mailman/ for the Mailman interfaces? Is there a default template Plesk uses when a new mailing list (Mailman) is created which I can modify for the desired result?
 
I think it is DNS related question but not malman. There is lists DNS record will be created after adding maillist. Therefore you can just rename it to report in DNS records for domain.
 
OK, I guess that makes sense - but there has to be either a Plesk script controlling this setup or a DNS template in place which is creating the DNS entry. In my Plesk environment, I see some shell scripts and php pages related to mail list creation but obviously since they are part of Plesk they are encoded / encrypted and are not viewable.

Is there any way to override the default name when the Mailing List is created?
 
Brandon,

I have discussed with developers and they have confirmed that it is hardcoded and can be changed only with binaries patching. Therefore you can create request to Parallels Support Team if it is really critical for you.
