Postmaster address

[wsani]

Running through qualifying Plesk as production ready. However, I ran into a little issue with when I ran a test domain through dnsreport:

Acceptance of postmaster address ERROR: One or more of your mailservers does not accept mail to [email protected]. Mailservers are required (RFC822 6.3, RFC1123 5.2.7, and RFC2821 4.5.1) to accept mail to postmaster.

mail.domain.com's postmaster response:<br /> >>> RCPT TO:<[email protected]><br /> <<< 550 sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.7.17) <br />

---

Acceptance of abuse address WARNING: One or more of your mailservers does not accept mail to [email protected]. Mailservers are expected by RFC2142 to accept mail to abuse.

mail.domain.com's abuse response:<br /> >>> RCPT TO:<[email protected]><br /> <<< 550 sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.7.17) <br />

Shouldn't Plesk setup to accept postmaster and abuse emails?

And how would you be able to read those emails? I'm afraid you need to setup those yourself. You can set them up as aliases for another mailname or as physical mailboxes, that's up to you.

There is a reason why technology is standardized. If Parallels makes their server software more RFC complaint, I wouldn't be pointing out a possible problem.

I don't want to set it up anyways, can you imagine doing this for thousands of domains? I can't! It also defeats the purpose of having a control panel that is supposed to "control" the server and also standardized the builds. It's a simple notion that most developers seem to ignore due to their egomaniacal ideas.

Anyways, this can’t be done easily, so I’ll just learn to live with it…

Plesk has a command line interface, so you could script something. You can also setup an Event Handler to create these mailboxes automatically when a domain is created.

What I meant was: Plesk could create these mailnames automatically, but I guess it doesn't happen automatically since there are many ways to set this up. If you have a an idea of how this should be implemented please post your ideas to the suggestions and feedback forum.
