Quick question regarding how to handle email for domain.com as well as sub.domain.com

If someone knows the answer to this I would appreciate it. What we have is:

mail -> ingress mail server -> hosting/mail server

The hosting/mail server running Plesk 10 is configured as:

hostname: host.domain.com
hosted domain: domain.com

mail is relayed via the inbound ingress mail server for [email protected] to host.domain.com. The server rejects the mail with the following error:

<<< 550 5.1.1 <[email protected]>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in virtual alias table
550 5.1.1 [email protected]... User unknown
<<< 554 5.5.1 Error: no valid recipients

If I change the hosted domain name to mail.domain.com and setup the ingress mail server to deliver to [email protected] it works but I don't really want my users to have to use the full domain name of "[email protected]" to login.

I tried to enable short names using:

./mailserver --set-account-type both

but I still see the following in the maillog:

checkmailpasswd: FAILED: test- short names not allowed from @ [::ffff:1.1.1.1]ERR: LOGIN FAILED, ip=[::ffff:1.1.1.1]

Isn't that the correct way to enable short names?
