I have created a new email address for my domain, admin@mydomain, with the Plesk mail interface, but I can’t access it. I have tried to open it in the browser by clicking on the little “mail” icon next to the “info” icon, it opens a new window with “webmail.mydomain/…” url, but my browser can’t resolve the domain. I have reset my DNS settings the day before, and I do have an entry for webmail.mydomain, so I don’t know what to do to make it work.

Thank you for your help !

  1. Who is serve DNS zone of your domain?
    If DNS zone is served by domain registrar than just add A record “webmail” to zone.

  2. I had same situation today. We use Ubuntu Parallel Plesk VPS.

    Only one added domain has webmail.somedomain.com that we can access, and only difference after re-change mode is *.201-MY-IP-173.maydomain.com. A 201.MY.IP.173.

    I don’t know if this was cause because of propagation of more than 6h. Now we can access to webmail.maydomain.com.

    In ParallelPleskPanel > Domains > ControlPanel > Website&Domain > DNS Settings > Manage.
    I did [Switch Off the DNS Service] and agait [Switch On the DNS Service] to turn DNS on.
    Now I have 17 DNS records created form DNS template.

    url:https://myVPS.myprovider.com/plesk/client@1/domain@3/dns/

    17 DNS records total
    
    Host    Record type Value
    
    maydomain.com.              A   201.MY.IP.173
    webmail.maydomain.com.      A   201.MY.IP.173
    smtp.maydomain.com.         A   201.MY.IP.173
    imap.maydomain.com.         A   201.MY.IP.173
    pop.maydomain.com.          A   201.MY.IP.173
    ns.maydomain.com.           A   201.MY.IP.173
    mail.maydomain.com.         A   201.MY.IP.173
    pop3.maydomain.com.         A   201.MY.IP.173
    *.201-MY-IP-173.maydomain.com.  A   201.MY.IP.173
    maydomain.com.          MX (10) mail.maydomain.com.
    www.maydomain.com.       CNAME  maydomain.com.
    *.webmail.maydomain.com. CNAME  maydomain.com.
    ftp.maydomain.com.       CNAME  maydomain.com.
    201.MY.IP.173 / 24        PTR   maydomain.com.
    maydomain.com.            NS    ns2.myprovider.com.
    maydomain.com.            TXT   v=spf1 +a +mx -all
    maydomain.com.            NS    myVPS.myprovider.com.

  3. Log into your Plesk Panel and go to: Home > Tools & Settings > Mail > Webmail.

    In Webmail you need to add the website you are trying to use into the list. The name can be whatever you want and the URL should be webmail.yourdomain.com.

    Once this is enabled (and if your DNS settings are already correct) then the webmail link should start working.
