for the last few days I have been trying to run an email server and it looks like I finally made it.
The email server runs on Debian in combination with postfix and dovecot. Webmin is also installed, in which I see emails for an user and I can also send emails.
I created a test user "Kontakt" and here is a screenshot from the webmin SCREENSHOT
Next I installed roundcube, configured and tested the smtp and imap connection. Everything is fine, but after logging in to the roundcube I do not see any emails.
I found that emails are stored in /var/spool/kontakt, but not in maildir and I do not why.
Summary - My goal is to be able to write, read and manage emails via a roundcube.
QUESTION 2: How can I ensure that an email address can only have a domain name, not a hostname?
For example, if I send an email from gmail to kontakt@mail.mintiga.cz, the email is ok. But if I send an email to kontakt@mintiga.cz, I will receive a message back that the email could not be delivered.
Thank you very much
