Does this mail server send *and* receive mail?  Which SMTP software?  Which
IMAP server?  More details are required.  In your follow up, please also 
define what you mean by 'add the domain to our mail server'.  If you do not
understand these requests for clarification, I urge you to contact the person
who actually set up 'this mail stuff'.

Adding new domain in mail server

2009-03-19 Thread Ruel Luchavez
Hi list..

we have here a mail server running in FreeBSD 6.2 which is holding out 2
domain (e.g u...@mydomain.com. w...@mydomain2.com) and it running very good,
unfortunately I'm not the person who configure this mail stuff.

heres my problem:

we bought a new domain (e.g mydomain3.com) and Im planning to add the domain
to our mail server so that I could create a new email ad with the new domain
(e.g us...@mydomain3.com). how will I do that?

Hi,

 we bought a new domain (e.g mydomain3.com) and Im planning to add the domain
 to our mail server so that I could create a new email ad with the new domain
 (e.g us...@mydomain3.com). how will I do that?

I am afraid no one can answer right now, there are many different
software used for mail server, and for each of them, there are several
ways to do virtual host (several domains in one server).


For each software and each virtual domain method, adding one new domin
takes a different path.

So you need to tell us more about what you are using.

Best regards,

This depends on your SMTP server, but by the way you have asked this
question, I don't think you will manage to do it. You are so green for that
task.

Anyway, find out what the SMTP server installed is, how it handles virtual
domains and how they are configured (user maps).

If you are familiar with Apache, PHP, MySQL, I'd suggest that you consider
Vexim (http://silverwraith.com/vexim) as an easier to manage system for
handling virtual domains.

If you need assistance in migrating, we can help (I can help).

Multiple domains are often called virtual domains.  The specific
details of how virtual domains work depend a bit on the mail server
software you are using.

Does the server run Sendmail, Postfix, or...?
