Default Removing mail server for a domain in Plesk

Hi All,

I'm trying to work out where, in Plesk, I can unset that the current server is the mail server for a domain.

When you create a domain, it asks you what you want to use this server for, like in the image below:



However, I can't find where to unset this after the domain has been created! And I really don't want to delete the domain and create everything all over again!

Any help would be muchly appreciated!

Thanks,

Stu

I think I've found it:

Home -> domains -> yourdomain.com -> Mail Accounts -> Mail Settings

In the 'Mail Settings' area you uncheck the box 'Activate mail service on domain' which I am hoping will tell Plesk that it's not the mail server for this domain.

(the reason for turning this off is that the client is now using Google Mail for their emails, so I no longer want Plesk to think it's the mail server)

cool you found it. Plesk is an area I know a fair bit about, so give me a shout if you have any other queries.

Cheers mate! I'll jump right on in next time I'm stuck... most of it's self explanatory, but sometimes I just get lost! Like it took me absolutely ages (I mean a few weeks) to work out how to increase a domains limits (space, bandwidth etc...) after it's been created lol
