[QUOTE=Mistoffeles;146137]Done that way, email leaving the server is sent "from" user@mail.domain.com, rather than user@domain.com. I don't know anyone who _wants_ their email to be sent from user@mail.domain.com, even if the name of the server actually is mail.domain.com, or just mail.

Perhaps, but that isn't what I've seen in our configuration or perhaps I'm mistaken or misunderstood. I know that I've never had an issue with emails leaving our internal network using the mail.domain.tld. I'm just talking about the "./install", not the final configuration.

To get Zimbra doing the right thing, for a simple 1-server config, in the Admin GUI

Configuration --> Domains
- add or rename the domain to "domain.tld" <-- no "mail." prepended
- set the "public service host name" to "mail.domain.tld"
- under the "Virtual Hosts" tab, set all the hosts that this server should answer for.
mail.domain.tld
feedback.domain.tld
mail.other-domain.tld
mail.freecharge.tld
- add any additional domains you'd like this server to manage (like other-domain.tld and freecharge.tld)

I guess the short simple version could be, when asked for:
Question | Answer
- hostname | mail.domain.tld
- domainname | domain.tld
- email domainname | domain.tld

Otherwise, how will you ssh into your zimbra server at domain.tld? It needs to have a hostname, right?
