Question What "[email protected]"?

Zoo3

Regular Pleskian
What "[email protected]"?

Subject: Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender
...
The mail system
<[email protected]>: unknown user: "admin"

I receive the above email irregularly to my registered email address. I can't find any entries registered as [email protected] when I log in with Admin and look at the profile and check the full hostname. hostname -f command is also fine. I'm the only user (administrator) of my Plesk.

Where is [email protected] set up?

Plesk 18.0.42
 
Have you modified line

mydestination = localhost.$mydomain, localhost, localhost.localdomain

in /etc/postfix/main.cf? What is the output of command:

# hostname -f
 
I don't use email on Plesk, so I haven't set anything up at all.
The relevant section of main.cf is described as follows
Code:
mydestination = localhost.$mydomain, localhost, localhost.localdomain
#mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, $mydomain
#mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, $mydomain,
#       mail.$mydomain, www.$mydomain, ftp.$mydomain

hostname -f
My domain will be displayed.
 
Try temporarily change line

mydestination = localhost.$mydomain, localhost, localhost.localdomain

to

mydestination = localhost.$mydomain, localhost

and check if it helps.
 
Thank you. I changed it that way. However, I am not sure when I will receive that email, so I am going to wait for a while for it to arrive.
