This option is used to setup e-mail accounts (aliases/forwards) for virtual hosts under RESELLERS. The configuration is similar to the configuration of standard e-mail aliases and forwards. Using virtual hosts, many domains can share a single IP address. This causes a dilemma for e-mail as there is no default way to differentiate between webmaster@virtual-1.com and webmaster@virtual-2.com - both addresses are just delivered to "webmaster" on the reseller account. As most websites, would like to use e-mail addresses like "webmaster" or "sales" with their domain, another method has to be used. The option Advanced e-mail for virtual hosts allows you to do so. This should ONLY be used for duplicate email addresses, and not normal email addresses that are not duplicates.
1. From the control panel, select "Advanced e-mail options" from the "Manage Email Services" drop down menu and click the "GO" button.
2. The complete address, including the virtual's domain name, must be entered in the "ALIAS" field. An example of this would be "webmaster@virtualhost-1.com".
3. The "MAILDROP" input field should contain the address of the final recipient of the mail - either the name of the POP account added for the virtual host or a valid offsite e-mail destination (like a POP account with your ISP).
4. To add an alias, click the "GO" button next to "Add the virtual alias".
5. To remove an alias, enter the virtual host e-mail address you want removed and click the "GO" button next to "Remove the alias".
6. To modify an existing alias, you must first remove it and then add the modified alias as you would when first adding it.
7. To view the current virtual host e-mail addresses set up, click the "GO" button next to "View the virtusertable file".
