I'm sure this is just a configuration problem on my part, so don't laugh too hard at me.
I have create a virtual domain, lets call it bubba.com for this case. I set the default username to pcm2a. When I go into mail and ftp users I see an entry like this:
Name IMAP/FTP Login Real Name pcm2a pcm2a bubba.com
So far so good. Next I create a new account for my fiances email, lets call her melissa (since that's her name). Now I see an additional entry like this:
Name IMAP/FTP Login Real Name melissa melissa.pcm2a Melissa
Now you can see my problem, what kind of login is "melissa.pcm2a"! I would expect that to be "melissa.bubba.com" since I have the default email setting of username.domain picked.
How can I get all of my virtual domains to use usernamme.domain instead of username.primary_username?
Thanks!
Howdy,
Ahh, interesting :-)
Well, you should be able to tweak that from within System Settings -> Server Templates -> Default -> Mail for Domain -- the option you want is called "Format for usernames that include domain".

Right, that was the first place I went to try to fix this issue. The default is already set to "username.domain". The other selections are just other configurations of the same thing, like "username@domain", "username_domain", etc.
I assuming changing that will just change the username from melissa.pcm2a to melissa@pcm2a, which wouldn't really solve anything.
I could rename my primary use to "bubba.com", but that seems crazy.
What is the login to anyone elses accounts (besides the primary) for a vhost? Is everyone else getting "somename"."host.com" or is everyone else getting the same results as me?
I'm having the same problem. I don't see the solution to this on this thread. I would like my usernames to be what I decide (given they are available on the system) and not have the .domain or @domain appended at all.
It seems that this was easy to configure before but somehow I can't find the solution.
Howdy,
It sounds like you may want to look in System Settings -> Module Config -> Defaults for New Domains.
The option "Include domain name in usernames?" I think is what you're after.
To configure how they look when the domain name is used -- you can look in System Settings -> Server Templates -> Default -> Mail for Domain. You'd want to tweak "Format for usernames that include domain".
