How to let Virtualmin send me an email through Google Apps email?

Hi.

To save the memory, I've disabled every email-related services. I'm now using Google Apps email instead.

Now, Virtualmin is silent for any errors that's supposed to be sent whenever there's backup or errors, etc.

Is there a way to let Virtualmin send me emails using Google Apps email service?

Howdy,

If you are no longer using mail for your Virtual Server, you'd want to make sure you go into Edit Virtual Server, and disable the "Mail for Domain" feature -- otherwise, it'll still try to deliver those locally.

Hi et100

I actually think that there's another setting required for this to work properly. When I changed the mail handler to Google Apps, simply disabling the 'Mail for Domain' option didn't entirely solve the problem - mail was still delivered locally.

You have to go to Webmin > Servers > Postfix Mail Server > Virtual Domains and remove the domain(s) which you have migrated to Google Apps. For some reason, disabling Mail for Domain does not remove this entry.

Hope this helps.
