[cobalt-users] RAQ2 - Getting email to work with subdomains



HI Folks,

I'm a new RAQ2 owner.

My webhost setup my "account" so that I have a "wildcard" (*.domain.com) DNS
entry so I can create an unlimited number of subdomains through the on-line
web interface.

When adding a New Virtual Site, I simply put the "subdomain" name  under
Hostname (instead of www or ftp) and the default domain name under Domain
Name (ex: subdomain.domain.com).

This works fine in creating subdomains...  HOWEVER... when I try to check
the "Accept Email for Domain" box for any subdomain, it gets rejected,
stating "Another site is already accepting email for the domain name
[domain.com]".

So...what do I have to do to get email working for the subdomains?

Please explain in laymen's terms if possible.  I am capable of telnetting
and editing a file, if necessary, but am still a bit of a novice at this
point.

Thanks.
