One server with two addresses

Post by Olli »

Hi

We have MailEnable Professional running in Windows 2019 server. The server has a single fixed IP-address. We have two domains, company.com and personal.net

How could we configure the server so that each domain would have its own addresses, so for example:
mail.company.com for webmail
imap.company.com
smtp.company.com
and
mail.personal.net
imap.personal.net
smtp.personal.net
for certificates we have been using let's encrypt. Would this be somehow doable, or should we just have one set of address from imap and smtp to use for both domains?

Hi,

You would create two postoffices, likely one company.com and the other personal.net. Then add the relevant domains under each of the postoffices. Your DNS for the different domains just have to point to the same IP address, as it does not matter to the mail server configuration. It knows the destination of inbound emails by the email address given. The POP/SMTP/IMAP services can use SNI so if you are using certs for each of the domains then it will pick up the correct certificate.
