RE: [cobalt-users] [raq4] sub.domain accepting mail - error about email server alias

["ajb" <ajb@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

All I do when I do this is treat name.domain.com as if it was just a domain with a dot in :-) 

A records, email MX records etc are just the same as you would set up any name but the name has a . in it and that's all it is

 Sounds OK to me, give it a try.
 You do know that those are not real sub-domains.
 They are new virtual sites.

 I still like and use:
 http://www.raqware.com/how2.html#sub-domains
 Some of my virtual sites have dozens of subdomains one for each user
 user.domain.com
