.. _domainadd:

domainadd

---------

Syntax:

Adds the new domain into the database and creates the domain directory.

If the optional argument transport is given, it will override the default

transport (*domain.transport*) from :file:`vmm.cfg`.

The specified *transport* will be the default transport for all new accounts

in this domain.

Configuration-related behavior:

 *domain.auto_postmaster*

  When that option is set to **true** (default) :command:`vmm` will

  automatically create the postmaster account for the new domain and prompt

  for **postmaster**\ @\ *fqdn*'s password.

 *account.random_password*

  When the value of that option is also set to **true**, :command:`vmm`

  will automatically create the postmaster account for the new domain and

  print the generated postmaster password to stdout.

Example:

.. code-block:: console

 root@host:~# vmm domainadd support.example.com -t smtp:[mx1.example.com]:2025

 Creating account for postmaster@support.example.com

 Enter new password: 

 Retype new password: 

 root@host:~# vmm cs account.random_password true

 root@host:~# vmm da sales.example.com

 Creating account for postmaster@sales.example.com

 Generated password: pLJUQ6Xg_z

domaindelete

------------

Syntax:

 | **vmm domaindelete** *fqdn* [**‒‒force**]

 | **vmm dd** *fqdn* [**‒‒force**]

This subcommand deletes the domain specified by *fqdn*.

If there are accounts, aliases and/or relocated users assigned to the given

domain, :command:`vmm` will abort the requested operation and show an error

message.

If you know, what you are doing, you can specify the optional argument

**‒‒force**.

If you really always know what you are doing, edit your :file:`vmm.cfg` and

set the option *domain.force_deletion* to **true**.

domaininfo

----------

Syntax:

 | **vmm domaininfo** *fqdn* [**-d** *details*]

 | **vmm di** *fqdn* [**-d** *details*]

This subcommand shows some information about the given domain.

For a more detailed information about the domain the optional argument

*details* can be specified.

A possible *details* value can be one of the following six keywords:

============ ==========================================================

keyword      description

============ ==========================================================

accounts     to list the e-mail addresses of all existing user accounts

aliasdomains to list all assigned alias domain names

aliases      to list all available alias e-mail addresses

catchall     to list all catch-all destinations

relocated    to list the e-mail addresses of all relocated users

full         to list all information mentioned above

============ ==========================================================

Example:

.. code-block:: console

 root@host:~# vmm domaininfo sales.example.com

domainnote

----------

Syntax:

 | **vmm domainnote** *fqdn* [**-n** *note*]

 | **vmm do** *fqdn* [**-n** *note*]

With this subcommand, it is possible to attach a note to the specified

domain.

Without an argument, an existing note is removed.

Example:

.. code-block:: console

 root@host:~# vmm do example.com -n 'Belongs to Robert'

.. versionadded:: 0.6.0

domainquota

-----------

Syntax:

 | **vmm domainquota** *fqdn storage* [**-m** *messages*] [**‒‒force**]

 | **vmm dq** *fqdn storage* [**-m** *messages*] [**‒‒force**]

This subcommand is used to configure a new quota limit for the accounts

of the domain - not for the domain itself.

The default quota limit for accounts is defined in the :file:`vmm.cfg`

(*domain.quota_bytes* and *domain.quota_messages*).

The new quota limit will affect only those accounts for which the limit has

not been overridden.

If you want to restore the default to all accounts, you may pass the optional

argument **‒‒force**.

When the argument *messages* was omitted the default number of messages

**0** (zero) will be applied.

Example:

.. code-block:: console

 root@host:~# vmm domainquota example.com 1g ‒‒force

.. versionadded:: 0.6.0

domainservices

--------------

Syntax:

 | **vmm domainservices** *fqdn* [**-s** *service ...*] [**‒‒force**]

 | **vmm ds** *fqdn* [**-s** *service ...*] [**‒‒force**]

To define which services could be used by the users of the domain — with

the given *fqdn* — use this subcommand.

Each specified *service* will be enabled/usable.

All other services will be deactivated/unusable.

Possible service names are: **imap**, **pop3**, **sieve** and **smtp**.

The new service set will affect only those accounts for which the set has

not been overridden.

If you want to restore the default to all accounts, you may pass the

option **‒‒force**.

.. versionadded:: 0.6.0

domaintransport

---------------

Syntax:

 | **vmm domaintransport** *fqdn transport* [**‒‒force**]

 | **vmm dt** *fqdn transport* [**‒‒force**]

A new transport for the indicated domain can be set with this subcommand.

The new transport will affect only those accounts for which the transport

has not been overridden.

If you want to restore the default to all accounts, you may pass the

option **‒‒force**.

Example:

.. code-block:: console

 root@host:~# vmm domaintransport support.example.com dovecot:
