I want to host the mail of my clients, but, I want to give to the client parameters as their domain name.

I explain,

CWP is hosted on centos.xxxxx.com
My client's domain name is tartempion.org

So in the client mail, I want the possibility to put the SSL parameters as : mail server : mail.tartempion.org, not centos.xxxxx.com

Is that possible ?

Cool, thanks for the answer.
But how ??

I'm having this same issue with SSL and Outlook.

Have the Inbound & outbound email server setup as mail.domain.com, but Outlook comes up with a certificate error and shows self signed certificate for the host name.

And you have to accept every time you open Outlook.
cPanel doesn't have this problem.

How do you fix this problem with CWP?


Thanks,
David

Just found it it is not possible with CWP unlike cPanel.

Unless someone knows a way around it.

I have the same issue.

I was using CPANEL and all my customers had SSL settings as mail.theirdomain.com.

Now that I moved to CWP for SSL connections I can only have mail.myhostname.com.

This means that all my customers need to reconfigure all their emails.

Has anyone found a solution for this issue? I want to be able to set the SSL settings with the domains of the customers.

Thanks,

Considering that cPanel has had a significant price increase in their licensing model, there is the mood in the hosting industry for another 'player' to step forward and claim some of what was previously cPanel's market share.

But for that shift to occur in CWP's direction, CWP is going to have to implement some 'industry standard' feature sets like... allowing virtual hosts to send mail over SSL, via their respective domains (mail.theirdomain.com) and not as it currently stands of solely via the server's FQDN (hostname.myserver.com).

The ramifications of not doing the above are well documented:

  • it means ALL clients will have to update their mail server settings when they are moved from cPanel to CWP
  • it looks unprofessional and raises questions client side

If there is indeed a way around this (as glorency suggests), then I am not aware of it but would dearly love to find out.

+1 this feature request

I was looking a way to do this, and i just saw the thread regarding this issue. This feature would be great to usu the same clients url as mail server.

is there any way to fix this? whatever manual it is because it's very annoying I can't access my email through the app windows email program because it doesn't have ssl for mall.namadomain.com only mall.hostname.com

What if you use a third party relay host such as Sendgrid?

It would be interesting to find a solution to this

cwp_user2018

In postfix this is posible from 3.4 version with SNI support.
Earlier versions need to reconfigure and use different IP's for all domains.

So is it possible to upgrade in CWP to postfix version 3.4?

Epic Cow

I believe it's in the making. As there is another post going here in regards to PostFix 3.
http://forum.centos-webpanel.com/e-mail/upgrade-cwp-to-use-postfix-3-x/

Current status seems to be that they are in testing... Perhaps soon!? I'm hoping so.

You got it? I'm going crazy....
mail_version = 3.4.7
