My company uses Plesk to provide hosting services to our Clients. We faced with the problem of creating the default domain e-mail addresses for all domains. I mean postmaster@domain.com, root@domain.com, and abuse@domain.com.
To create these e-mail addresses the easiest way is to create a script which copies the .qmail-postmaster file into each domain’s mailnames (/var/qmlail/mailnames) folder. So I wrote the following little script to do this updated, and I called it from crontab periodically.
#!/bin/bash for domain in `ls /var/qmail/mailnames/ | xargs`; do if [ ! -f "/var/qmail/mailnames/$domain/.qmail-postmaster" ] then echo "Updating postmaster account for $domain domain" cp /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-postmaster /var/qmail/mailnames/$domain/.qmail-root cp /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-postmaster /var/qmail/mailnames/$domain/.qmail-abuse cp /var/qmail/alias/.qmail-postmaster /var/qmail/mailnames/$domain/.qmail-postmaster fi done
But it not works with the Domain Aliases (as Plesk calls them). These are the virtual domains in the Qmail’s language. So I will try to dig how it works fine with these virtual ones.
After a couple of days…
I found the answer for my question. I wrote a script which queries the Plesk’s database for domains with aliases and creates a symbolic link to the domain’s folder in the mailnames QMail folder.
