Migration From IMail 8.0 To Mail Enable / JMail
One of our client is switching servers and the old one had iMail 8.0 but he cant afford the same on his own dedicated server.

We are planning to use either Mail Enable or JMail as the replacement.

We have 450 mail accounts on iMail and we will have to migrate them as well.

What do you recommend will be the easiest and better? JMail Professional Edition or Mail Enable Professional Edition?

Crossgrade From Merak Mail To WHM/cPanel
My company recently bought out another hosting company. We would like to find a way to trasnfer clients from the windows servers (IIS to Apache is the easy part) running Merak Mail Server 8.9.1 to our existing cPanel/WHM Linux servers.

I have opened a ticket with Merak, but their support takes weeks; And if i were them, i wouldnt help me either.

I two specific questions really:

1) The format of the raw data (emails)... Is it the same? can i just FTP it over once i have created the correct accounts on cPanel/WHM?

2) Accounts.. is there an easy way to trasnfer the domain names and user accounts? If not, i dont mind doing this by hand, it will just be tedious.

Migrating From Workgroup To Domain
I'm considering migrating our shared web hosting environment from a workgroup based environment to a domain environment. Right now all machines are basically running IIS + .net 1.1 or 2.0 or PHP5. FTP is done using windows ftp and Local System Accounts are being used for FTP users. Just wondering if anyone has done this in an environment with 4 or more machines and MSSQL running SQL server auth.

Migrating A Add-on Domain
Basically I have one website hosted (add-on domain) on a shared server. Now this domain has to moved to another server on its own. I have no doubt backing up the database from the current server and restoring it but is there an easy way to move the website, mailbox contents? Both servers are cPanel plans, I would just use copy account in WHM if it was not an add-on domain.

Forward Mail From Parked Domain To Primary Domain - How? MX Record?
OK, I am confused. I have one domain that is parked on top of another domain. I would like Mail that comes to the parked domain to be automatically forwarded to the same user name at the primary domain.

Can I change a DNS or MX record to facilitate this?

Creating A Real Mail Using A Domain Name
i have just asked about it a local hosting copany and they show unable to understand what i was asking in the beginning and to give me a proper reply when they finally did.

What i want is to create several mail accounts using my domain names (several mail accounts for each domain name using it)

The usual answer is to use mail forwarding that every registrar offer for free when you register a domain name with them.

So you get a

free mail account
amail@gmail.com

domain name
adomain.com

and you create a forwarding such as

amail@adomain.com to amail@gmail.com

then you give amail@adomain.com so they can write to you using that fake mail, the message will bounce in your registrar and will send it to amail@gmail.com

but what if i want a real amail@adomain.com mail because i want to write replies from that address.

With mail forwarding as long as i know you can receive mail using the fake mail forwarding address but as mail is not a real one you then are forced to reply from the real account behing the forwarding one amail@gmail.com

Can i do that, is that a service included in hosting plans or somewhere. Or am i wrong and its simpler than that.

Different E-mail/Web Server But Same Domain Name
I was wondering if someone might be able to help me out. I've been trying to get this figured out for the past week and have not had any success. Here is my problem, I have one domain name, I have the Web services provided on one server, and I need my e-mail provided on a different server for the same domain. I can't seem to figure out how to get my e-mail set up that is on a different server. I really need to get my e-mail going because it's very important. I think this has something to do with updating the MX records and some other stuff but I have no idea how to do it through my registrars control panel that they have. I registered it through Go Daddy.

Unable To Receive Mail From One Domain
I'm having a problem, I can't receive any e-mail from a certain domain (ace.ag in this case, for example from test@ace.ag ). They sey they receive no bounced mail or anything, seems like working normally.

In the DNS reprot it seems connection to their mail server (mail.ace.ag) fails:
[url]

I'm using:
WHM 10.8.0
cPanel 10.9.0-R10737
CentOS 4.5 i68
Exim 4

I have RBL filtering setup as explained here:

what to check on my server or what to tell the ace.ag owners?

2 Email Addresses On The Same Domain But Using Different Mail Servers
I'm trying to see if it's possible to have 2 email addresses on the same domain (e.g. email1@domain.com and email2@domain.com) but are handled by 2 different email servers (e.g. mail.domain1.com and mail.domain2.com)?

To put it into context, I have a domain hosted on my dedicated server and a couple of email accounts set up on it. I also have another mail account set up on a different server but with the same domain. I was wondering if maybe something could be done with the DNS to allow the 'external' mail account to be handled by the other server?

E-mail From Addon Domain Flagged As Junk
I have an addon domain running on my webhosting along side my primary account. I am mostly using the Thunderbird client to send e-mails. 80% of the time when I send a mail out from "name@addondomain.com" hotmail, gmail, yahoo all see it as spam!

What's ironic is I receive more darn adult e-mails in my free accounts than anything else, and yet it's thinking the occasional mass personal message is SPAM?

So these guys that flood my inbox daily must know something I don't?

Is there something I'm doing incorrectly? Or do I need to change a hosting package setting, should I use different software such as a php mailing list?

E-mail Hosting, Google Apps And Domain Locking
I've seen that a similar topic was posted earlier today, but I have more specific question. I'm looking for the e-mail only hosting. Requirements:

* dedicated IP
* SMTP + SSL (TLS)
* POP3/IMAP + SSL (TLS)
* up to 10 e-mail addresses from various domains
* forwarders (10 or more)
* 1-5 GB storage
* 10 GB bandwidth
* budget: the less the better, but I'll pay any reasonable amount of money if the service is good. Basically I need to find a provider at which I can keep my e-mail address once and for all. (I need a few e-mails only, a few forwarders, 100 MB storage and 1 GB bandwidth but I stated more so I don't run out on resources)

Is there any significant difference between SSL and TLS or is it all mainly in the proprietary vs open standard?

Is there any good reason why not to use Google Apps for this purpose? I've read that some people are concerned about privacy. Is there any pro that can comment on this (privacy issue) and remain objective?

One last (dumb?) question. What is the purpose of domain locking? Before AuthCodes were introduced I could see the reason for locking domains, but why would anyone want to lock the domain these days? (and yet I see majority still does) I mean, noone can initiate the transfer without providing AuthCode (can he?) and isn't that alone good enough to keep the domain safe? And if someone manages to gain control to the control panel to read AuthCode then he can easily unlock the domain so I see no additional layer of security.

Reversable Domain/DNS Problems In E-mail Genuinity Check
Title: Reversable Domain/DNS Problems in E-mail Genuinity Check

Tags: DNS, firewall, internet protocol, routing, email

This is a real world scenario that I need help figuring out. I have thought of everything I could, but now I must seek the privileging knowledge and help from WebhostingTalk Forumers.

This is a real world scenario -- how so? Well know that Microsoft's TechNet newsletter probably goes out to at least a million people. How many of those e-mails go out to yahoo.com? Gmail.com? Hotmail.com? AOL.com? Etcetera. This is the same scenario that my company is in, except with a little bit of a kicker that has caused me to seek help.

In this scenario we have at least 10,000 clients with an e-mail at company-b.com. We need to send all of our clients an important e-mail with confidential information. We have one physical server and it is located in a ventilated and cooled datacenter'ish room. We also have two internet service providers for connection redundancy. On our firewall, we have it set so that if our primary ISP goes down it will instantly switch over to our secondary ISP until our primary ISP is back online. The IP address our primary ISP gives us on the internet is 48.48.48.48, and our secondary ISP gives us 68.68.68.68.

[url]

Company-b.com, for the protection of their customers, will resolve the reverse DNS from the address an e-mail would come from to make sure that the IP addresses match. In other words, when you send an e-mail from company-a.com it will come out from mail.company-a.com (with an IP address of 48.48.48.48 for example). When the mail gets to company-b.com, that server will resolve the reverse DNS (or try to anyway) of mail.company-a.com to make sure that it is indeed coming from 48.48.48.48. If it resolves it to a different IP address, it will not deliver the e-mails you sent from company-a.com to its customers on company-b.com.

In general, this verification process tries to verify the genuinity and validity from where e-mail was sent from to its own customers. If mail.company-a.com resolves to a different IP address than what it came from, then it is possible to say that we (or company-a.com) are using a relay (which is like a proxy), or that our domain name is simply not reversable.

[url]

To summarize: mail is sent out through 48.48.48.48 (but then goes offline coincidentally) and is sent to 96.96.96.96. Because 48.48.48.48 is down, mail.server-a.com will resolve to 68.68.68.68 instead of the original IP address we sent out our mail from, and because the IP addresses differ, the server 96.96.96.96 rejects the mail we sent, thinking that we either (1) have a DNS problem, (2) are spammers/spam-bombers, or (3) using a relay or proxy, which many companies are against, do not support, and have counter-measures against relay/proxy-users.

[url]

Any and all help will be appreciated. We are looking for a workable, proper/appropriate solution so that we can successfully pass the reverse domain test. We can add/modify DNS/MX records to company-a.com. We must have the two ISPs we have for redundancy; our company and clients heavily depend on our internet connection's uptime. Also, a lot of people in the company depend on IMAP/POP3/SMTP with their cell phones, iPhones, PDAs, laptops, timecards, etcetera. We may be able to schedule something maintenaince for a weekend if necessary.

Exim - Mail Filter, Blind Copy All Domain Emails
I have Exim install on my server, I have a few filters setup.

I have several domains on the same server.

What I want to be able to do is blind copy all emails SENT and RECEIVED from *@domain1.com delivered to backup@backup.com

PHP Code:

if error_message then finish endif 
if $header_to: contains "@domain1.com"
then unseen deliver "backup@backup.com" endif 

Now this filter does NOT work, I want it to blind copy all emails sent from *@domain1.com

PHP Code:

if $sender_address contains "@domain1.com"
then unseen deliver "backup@backup.com" endif 

I have 1 outgoing mail filer working, however it is for a specific email address, here it is....

PHP Code:

if $sender_address is "user1@domain1.com" 
then unseen deliver "backup@backup.com" endif

Can I Point MX Record For Third-party Domain To Yahoo Small Biz Mail?
My client has a domain registered at GoDaddy and a Yahoo Small Business email package.

The only info I can find on Yahoo suggests I need to redelegate the domain's name servers to Yahoo, and I'd rather not do this if I can help it.

Is it possible to simply leave the name servers at GoDaddy and point the MX record to Yahoo's servers?

I don't see anything on Yahoo saying it won't work, but then I see nothing to suggest it will either!

Name Server After Migrating
I am in the process (or my server manager is) of migrating my server from one provider to another. Once all the files have been migrated and everything is "set" on the new server, what do I need to do with respect to the name servers? I currently have 2 name servers NS1.Mymainwebsite.com and NS2.Mymainwebsite.com. Each registered with an IP address from my current server host. Once I migrate, do I only need to re-register the name servers under my main website with their new IPs? Or does every person with a web site domain on my server need to "re-register" the IP address of the name servers.

Migrating Webalizer
I'm running into some troubles moving my Webalizer installation. I want to keep all my stats, so what I did was to copy all the files to my new host, checked permissions as well.

Each website outputs their logs to a separate log file, and that log file is pointed to in the respective webalizer.conf.

My problem is that when I try to run webalizer -c /path to conf file/ it tells me that it found x new records (good!), but then it ignores all of them. Every single time it'll tell me it found so and so many records, and says, "(number of new records) ignored".

So I'm not sure what I've missed in the config, and why it can't update.

Migrating Domains Without Any Downtime
to migrate domains to another server with zero downtime. There is a panel (but its webminish) and I have full root access to everything so this will be a hands on job.

The thread I recalled seeing was about someone hosting shoutcast servers and they wanted to migrate and there was a way they did this without any downtime.

I can't remember the details but it had a way to redirect all traffic to the new machines. This would be great, as I also want to direct all traffic including mails (not just HTTP).

Migrating To New Server WHM
I'm currently running various sites on a single server but cause the requirements are no longer satisfied by the current configuration i started renting a more powerful server in a different provider. Both servers are running CPANEL/WHM.

Migrating LxAdmin To New VPS
Anyone know the correct way to do this? I've been on here looking at a few threads and on lxlabs forum but my solution can't be resolved. I'm sure its something easy.

Here goes,

I'm migrating from an lxadmin VPS to another lxadmin VPS.

The problem I have is that my IP's for the HOME>DNS TEMPLATE and HOME>IP ADDRESSES are the same as my old VPS.

Now I can change the IP in the DNS template, however under HOME>DNS TEMPLAES>CREATE NEW it doesn't have my NEW VPS IP's listed in the drop-down menu. I read somewhere in an LxAdmin tutorial to update LxAdmin to get your current IP's assoicated with your new VPS. I did this and nothing changed.

In addition to the DNS Templates not being correct, In HOME>IP ADDRESSES it also lists the same OLD VPS IP's. Saw a thread in LxLabs forum with someone that had the same problem. Their help stated to just change the IP ADDRESS to your new one. I would do that but there is no option to allow me to ADD a new IP. Again i'm in HOME>IP ADDRESSES here.

Migrating From 1&1 Shared - Best Option
I'm fed up with the overloaded 1&1 shared hosting, looking into VPS now as I'm finally getting serious about one of my sites.

I tried offloading scripts and images to amazon s3, which helps a bit, but any sort of php application processing is painful.

Admittedly, I haven't implemented caching at all yet and my query count is definitely bad but even so load times seems excessive as the site isn't getting any real use yet, just me testing (and I will make heavy use of caching for all entry points in the near near future).

My must-have:

-PHP5

-2 seperate MySQL databases

-htaccess/mod_rewrite

-fast initial response time on loads

-unlimited subdomains would be nice

Don't really care about the control panel as long as it does what I need. I'm fine with command line and managing myself... looking for a cheap option that will allow me to grow to a medium sized site before I consider a full dedicated option.

Also, don't need an outrageous amount of bandwidth as I'm using S3 for css,js,images, and video right now.

I will be running two domains on this site... one is the actual site and one is a single sign on gateway that won't put too much load on the cpu but needs to serve up pages in timely fashion.

Wordpress Issues After Migrating To Knownhost VPS
Knownhost provide free migration until unless cpanel matches and I was using dreamhost who are using custom panel and from here the whole fiasco started.

I had to do the migration myself and everything went fine.. but few problem which started here as I was not aware of the permission.

I installed Cpanel from the WHM and done the migration..

I'm facing few little problem and I will appreciate if someone can give me a helping hand here with this problems and tips.

1. Wordpress pLugin Installtion : I can't install plugin directly from my wordpress dashbaord. It's asking for host information (FTP), but I would like to be like what i had it in previous host. I know issue is with the permission but I don't know how to resolve it. If you can give your 2 cents here and keep in mind I'm a newbie with server stuff so proper steps will be much appreciated, or I have to open a support ticket to Knownhost, what should I ask them to do.
This is what I can see here "To perform the requested action, connection information is required."

2. WHM optimization : From my understanding any system when installed is a raw system, either be a computer, server or wordpress and we have to optimize it. So What do I need to do to optimize the performance of my server (WHM) and hardening the security.

3. Cpanel Security and Optimization : I have create a cpanel and Same questions for cpanel, anything I need to do to optimize the cpanel in terms of security and performance.

I will appreciate any information here as it will be helpful for me and I'm sure for other newbies like me.

Migrating From A Dedicated Server To A Reseller Account
I have a dedicated server which I need to migrate all sites to a reseller account on a different host.
It comes down to 6 sites that I must not lose any emails.

On the source server, I have full access to it. It's CentOS, WHM, cPanel, etc. On the destination reseller account (downtownhost), I have access to WHM, and individual cPanel. But I can't see any transfer or restore options on the WHM, though on the individual cPanel account, I see a restore option which states:

Quote:

This feature allows you to restore parts of your cPanel by uploading your partial backup zip file(s) that you downloaded from the backup feature.

The following can be restored:

* Home Directory
* MySQL Databases
* Email forwarders configuration
* Email filters configuration

My plan is so far:

1) Generate a full backup for each site on the source server.

2) Create the accounts on the destination reseller account. (Is it possible before I update the IP of the nameserver to point to the new server?)

3) Restore the sites with this wizard I mentioned above in each cPanel.

4) Change the nameserver host IP to the new server.

5) Hold my fingers and bless every living creature for a smooth move.

if I could do this any better, trying not to lose any emails in the process.

Correct Procedure For Migrating Email Accounts From One Host To Another
I have a client who will be pointing their domain to my reseller server. I have already setup the account on my server and made the appropriate DNS changes with their domain registrar - so the domain should be pointing to my server soon.

However, what is the normal procedure for migrating email accounts, without loosing mail?

When should they change email account settings?

Should they use their current settings until they get an error, or no longer receive mail, then change settings to match my server?

How is this normally done?

Smarter Mail - Spammers Targetting Mail Server Using Dynamic Ip's
We have been having some problems with one of our mail servers lately. Server is running Smarter Mail 4.x with declude.

Some spammers have been targeting this particular to send spam through this server. This putting lot of load on the server because declude is processing the SPOOL in Smarter Mail and spool goes upto 2000-20000 during the day. We have been checking the headers and blocking the IP's continuously of these spam but these people are using dynamic ip's. And it doesn't seem like single spammer. Content is quite different.

Blocking full ranges of certain IP Range helps though but then lot of legitimate mail is getting blocked as well.

Is there any good suggestion or a serious mail server admin who can have a look and actually sort it.

This is causing serious delays on our mail delivery through this mail server.

Mail Proxy: How To Stop CGI Mail Proxies
During last week, two of our clients' accounts got compromised (most probably due to weak passwords) and there was a CGI script installed which started sending emails to more than 200,000 email accounts. This email addresses were stored in a text file.

By the time we noticed this activity, our server got black listed on major RBLs like Barracuda, SpamCop, Spamhaus etc and it took around 2 days to cleanup

3 days later, another account compromised with same *thing* and it really is pain in the arse now dealing with this and angry clients

We've already implemented a policy to restrict users to send 100 messages/per hour/domain which is working, but it seems this *thing* bypass exim.

I guess this Open Proxy Servers a Source of Spam is what i want to explain!

So my question is, if I've understood this right, is it possible to stop scripts like this or can we enforce mailman to use exim all the time to send messages and stop direct-mailing?

Mail Server / Can't Send Or Receive Mail
In webmail, when a person trys to send an email they get this error:

Message not sent. Server replied: Requested action aborted: error in processing
451 Temporary local problem - please try later

We have tried all the mail processing apps on Webmail (horde/squirrel/roundcube) and all of them seem to do the same thing. We have restart exim and that doesn't do anything either.

I tried searching Google, but I didn't find too much luck there.
