    cPanel is driving me up all 4 walls in my office:

    - I've got 20 domains at an external DNS, all configured fine
    - mail to the master domain is forwarded to an external gmail account, working fine (through a Default Address option)
    - all domains registered as alias, working fine with A records as well (so site is visible)
    - mail for ALL aliases is forwarded as well through Default Address Maintenance
    - NOT a single mail to the aliases however, comes through at gmail

    Nuts nuts nuts. One would expect that an alias is just the "ok"for the software "to handle everything like it was the master"... Not.

    What is the trick to forward mail for aliases?
    Thanks in advance...

    Hi,

    You can create an email forwarding for this.

    OR

    As well, check if "Catch-All" is selected or not in your cPanel..

    Hello,

    Can you let us know the output from /var/log/exim_mainlog when sending a test message that isn't forwarded to Gmail? EX:

    Code:
    exigrep user123@aliased-domain.tld /var/log/exim_mainlog
    Thank you.
