Vesta Control Panel - Forum

I have a vesta where I've created mailboxes for a few customers but now one customer wants access to his own panel. I can do this via packages but the mailboxes have already been created in the main admin panel I have for other customers too. Is there a way to move his mailboxes and other settings into a package he has access to?

As far as i know there are ways to do that but i am not familiar with the correct procedure to follow here.

It is possible to do this, however you need to have experience as a sysadmin.

In short, you need to create all mailboxes in the customer account and then copy the entire directory structure from /home/admin/mail/domain to /home/customer/mail.

Finally, you will need to set the permissions of directories and files for the client user. You do this with the "chown" command. For example: chown -R customer.mail /home/customer/mail/domain

The best way to do this is with the SMTP (Exim) service stopped.

Test everything to ensure emails are being delivered to the correct location. You do this by viewing the /var/log/exim/mail.log file.

Can't one request to someone who is a sysadmin?
