QMail - Creating a server wide email account.

[seanstephens]

Hi All,

Anybody know of a way to create a server wide email account for all domains installed on the server? For example, we would like to create support@<domain>.com and have it forward to our email account. Now we want this to exist for all our clients, so they can send email accounts to support@<theirdomain>.com and we would get the email.

Any Ideas? Is this even possible without having to create the actual account for the 150+ domains on the server?

Thanks.

You can do this using the command line automation tools that plesk provides. You'd need to create a script that generates the address you want for all domains (based on a database lookup or the contents of /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts or something) but it would do it all for you easily as opposed to having to do it manually one by one for each domain.

You could even use the automation tools in Plesk to trigger the addition of the necessary address when you create a new domain.

I've never used any of these things and I'm afraid I can't remember what exactly the tools/facilities are called.
