Question

Is it possible to create a mailbox or configure mail forwarding for a domain alias in Plesk?

Answer

The feature of creating mailboxes under domain aliases is yet to be implemented. Instead, the mailboxes of the primary domain are used.

Take part in our product improvement and vote for this feature on Plesk UserVoice.
The top-ranked suggestions are likely to be included in the next versions of Plesk.

The current implementation shows that:

  • If the Mail service option is enabled during domain alias creation, the mailboxes created under the primary domain will also be available under the alias.

  • If the mail is sent to a mailbox on the domain alias ([email protected]), it will be forwarded to the mailbox with the same name on the primary domain ([email protected]).

So the necessary forwarding rules can be configured on the mailboxes of the primary domain.
