Where is the hostmaster email address for DNS SOA kept?

[105547111]

I want to change my default email address that shows up in a DNS lookup of the domain, but which setting in plesk does the hostmaster email come from?

I tried :

client / edit

and

server / edit

But had no effect, I even restarted DNS still the same

Its this dat you get on a DNS lookup...

Your SOA record [TTL=86400] is:

Primary nameserver: xxxx
Hostmaster E-mail address: xxxx

Thanks!

From my experience, Plesk obtains this from the Client E-mail address. I wish there were other options for it instead, but at the present time, that's the only location I know of.

This information can be edited in the DNS zone file for the specific domain. This is probably the easiest way to do it, however when you modify the zone through Plesk it may overwrite the info. These files will be located in /var/named/run-root/var/ in the format of domain.tld.

In this file line 3 will look something like this:

@ IN SOA NS1.DOMAIN.TLD. default.email.tld. (

Note the . instead of the @ int he email address. Also pay careful attention to the . at the end of each thing.

You can modify that and it will then change the email address for the Domain in DNS.

So this means you can make it the [email protected]? And then keep your personal email in the Plesk admin area?
