No webmail available and troubles making mail accounts to work?

Hi,
I successfully setup vesta, on my Ubuntu 18.04 machine vps running on ovh servers. All seems to work ok, I can get mail accounts.
But struggling with two things:
- when trying to go to domain.com/webmail i get 404 Not Found - nginx/1.21.6
- in vesta, apart from domains in web and mail i also have vpsxxxxxx.ovh.net where xxxxx is vps id in ovh, so all links to webmail and smtp/imap settings show up as vps637193.ovh.net and vpsxxxxxx.ovh.net/mail (link to webmail in vesta) instead of domain.
- all attempts to set those email accounts work in gmail (being able to send mails from within google or receive) and also setup of mail app in windows (or even thunderbird) fail too.

in ovh, im using dns servers of ovh (so not using dns in vesta), also wondering what mx records should be set - ovh support doesn't want to help me here.

Would you guys suggest how should i set this up ?

Assuming vps637193.ovh.net matches your Vesta server hostname, then if you use vps637193.ovh.net/webmail you will get the Roundcube login screen.

If domain.com/webmail doesn't work and domain.com is a web domain configured on your Vesta server, then check if domain.com has the IP of your Vesta server.

vps637193.ovh.net and domain.com must have the same IP. OK?

Also check the /etc/nginx/conf.d/webmail.inc file. This file is responsible for directing "*/webmail" access to Roundcube.

But I think your problem is in some wrong DNS record.
