When I add domain.tld as a web server alias I get this error on the web gui "Sorry, the data entered in the field speed is invalid. Please check your input and try again" , and strangely it is listed the vhost, also I add domain.tld on the mail server alias field (although I don't know where to see on the server if it is added or not)

So when I open a new mail user its alias is opened like:
aliasname at www.domain.tld


Is it sure that with the two changes made above when I send mail to aliasname at domain.tld it will go to the real user there (with its alias aliasname at www.domain.tld) and not through an error like User doesn't exist

Thank you,

Enid

    Ok, but what if I want to create the alias like aliasname at domain.com how can I do it?

  If you enter the domain.tld as a web server alias in the web settings of the virtual site AND in the mail server alias field of the email settings, you will accomplish this. It won't list in the virtusertable, but it will be functionally there through a domain alias. That way you don't have to manually add an entry for every user.

  Just put 1000 (or any number) in the speed field. You can leave the tick box un-ticked so it isn't actually enforced. There's a bug in the gui there...

  You need domain.tld as a web server alias if you want http://domain.tld to work. It will resolve to http://sitename.domain.tld

  Similarly you need domain.tld as a mail server alias if you want mail to be delivered to user at domain.tld
  It appears in virtusertable as @domain.tld -> %1 at sitename.domain.tld

  Naturally, domian.tld and sitename.domain.tld have to be in DNS as A records and point to the site's ip.
