I have enabled Wordpress Multisite with subdirectory on VPS nginx server. I also have roundcube & postfix running. The URL to access mail is webmail.mysite.com. The problem is webmail.mysite.com get directed to mysite.com, which is expected. I found out it is because of ordering of domains and subdomains. The wordpress guide https://codex.wordpress.org/Configuring_Wildcard_Subdomains_for_multi_site_under_Plesk_Control_Panel is written for apache server. How can I award subdomain first priority on nginx server.
