Re: qmail restart error, plesk qmail error, [: =: unary operator expected
You have installed Plesk, updated all your modules, upgrade PHP, mysql, everything looks great. Then, you realise that you have Plesk with the Postfix MTA but you want Qmail MTA – so you go ahead and select Qmail MTA in the Plesk Upgrade Manager.
Install is fine, until you try to start qmail.
[root@server ~]# service qmail restart /etc/init.d/qmail: line 25: [: =: unary operator expected
Before you panic, check this file:
# cat /etc/sysconfig/network
HOSTNAME=server.yourhostname.com
NETWORKING=yes
If you are missing the NETWORKING line, simply insert it.
# [root@server ~]# service qmail start Starting qmail: [ OK ]
Your qmail service is now functioning as required. Panic over 🙂
We offer mailboxes with our parked domain services. The mailboxes supplied with parked domain names operate slightly differently to hosting mailboxes, this FAQ should help in answering some of the common questions regarding parked domains.
For parked domain mailboxes you domain name servers need to be set to point to the parking server (MICROLITE1). The name servers should be set to:
If your name servers are not set to the parking name servers then your domain name will not be connected to your domain mailbox service and no email will be received to your mailbox. Any name server changes are subject to the usual global DNS propagation delay of up to 72 hours.
You can access your domain mailbox be using the login details in your welcome email. We currently offer Squirrelmail as the webmail client for domain mailboxes which you can access using the following URL:
http://www.microlite1.com/webmail
You can also add your domain mailbox POP user details to your email client (such as Outlook) by using the incoming mail server name “mail.microlite1.com”. The outgoing mail server name must be that as provided by your ISP.
You can send email from your domain mailbox by logging in to your webmail client (currently based on Squirrelmail) at the URL below:
http://www.microlite1.com/webmail
It is not possible to send email using your local email client at this time unless your ISP allows you to send outgoing mail direct from your PC.
It is not possible to send email using your email client at this time. Emails can only be sent by using the webmail client accessable here: http://www.microlite1.com/webmail
Yes, simply use your mailbox name (eg mbname-domain-co-uk) as your POP username and mail.microlite1.com as your incoming POP mail server name. This will enable you to download your emails to your local email client.
Re: Email port, ports for email, secure email ports
When troubleshooting email and mail server related problems it is wise to first check that all of your email ports are open and not being blocked by your firewall, here you can find the ports you need open for POP, POPS, IMAP, IMAPS and SMTP
Ensure these ports are open if you are have problems communicating with your mail server.
Re: Setup email on iPhone, iPad, iPod or IMAP PC/Mac client
So you have logged in to Plesk and created your mailbox. Now, apart from being able to use RoundCube Webmail straight away, you might want to connect your cool iDevices too. Here’s how to do it…
Try the following for sending/receiving IMAP on your iPhone/iPad or Mac/PC devices:
Incoming Mail Server
Hostname: mail.yourdomain.co.uk
User Name: mailboxname@yourdomain.co.uk
Password: (your password)
A certificate warning may be displayed, please click on Details -> Trust to continue. This will allow you to use your shared hosting server SSL certificate to connect securely to your mail account.
Advanced Incoming Settings
Use SSL: ON
Authentication: Password
IMAP Prefix: INBOX
Server Port: 993
S/MIME: OFF
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
Hostname: mail.yourdomain.co.uk
User Name: mailboxname@yourdomain.co.uk
Password: (your password)
Use SSL: ON
Authentication: Password
Server Port: 587
Obviously replace mailboxname@yourdomain.co.uk with your own actual mail box name and yourdomain.co.uk with your actual domain name. Now you should be able to send and receive without any problems.
