Hi, I would like to know if it is possible to have a simple way to create a blank domain redirecting to https://webmail.webfaction.com/ like webmail.mydomain.com. It would be easier to remember for the staff. asked 29 Mar '11, 18:05 carpincho |
You could do a redirect as described in our docs: Redirect a Domain with a Static/CGI/PHP App Or, you can create a CNAME DNS record to point webmail.mydomain.com at webmail.webfaction.com. Hope that helps! answered 29 Mar '11, 18:08 seanf |
Just found that you can use the DNS override configured as follows: Subdomain: webmail.mydomain.com A ip: 174.133.50.206 (This is the IP of mail.webfaction.com) Cname: blank Mx name: mail.webfaction.com Mx priority: blank SPF Record: blank Thanks to all. answered 29 Mar '11, 18:43 carpincho I think you have a typo up there.. 174.133.50.206 is currently the IP of webmail.webfaction.com, not mail.webfaction.com. Also, you don't need to set the MX record for your webmail subdomain - you should just leave that blank.

Yes you are right, actually I wanted it to point to webmail.webfaction.com and thanks for the remark on Mx name. Grateful rookie.
