Title: [SOLVED] Administrator and root email/alias
Post by: haychis on May 05, 2017, 05:42:19 pm

I can't seem to get administrator and root emails to forward to a virtual domain address.

I've tried /etc/aliases root: henry@virt.domain then newaliases doesn't seem to work
I've tried .forward in /root and /home/administrator with henry@virt.domain doesn't work

I keep getting a message in the log about a bounced message (user unknown) administrator@zentyal.virt.domain. Do I add an email address to the administrator account from 'Users and Computers' ? When I look in there it says 'This user has a mail account which does not belong to any managed mail domain' but can't see any email listed which I suppose is the built in administrator@'server mailname'.

Any help appreciated.

zentyal 5
mail module 5.0.5

Could you please try with the new zentyal-mail 5.0.6? Thanks!

I fixed it by adding hash:/etc/aliases to virtual_aliases_maps.

I will remove it from the mail stub and update to 5.06 and see if that fixes it too.


EDIT: Upgraded to 5.06 and so far working fine. Will mark it solved.
