    I’ve been using this service for a couple of days now, and it’s made my internet access so much faster. That alone is a plus, and I never thought there would be a contender for Cloudflare in this area.

    @Hari said in Virtualmin Setup DigitalOcean: i have felt it is very hard to manage Virtualmin the settings are confusing It’s a bit of a learning curve, admittedly, but very powerful and easy to use provided you understand the implications of what you are doing. For example, moving a VirtualMin server to subserver and then back again without changing underlying components that rely on the correct placement of the server, of course it will no longer work.

    @hari the cache level for woocommerce should always be bypass. Any caching of woocommerce will cause you serious issues and will result in the checkout process not functioning correctly. This does mean that the overall experience will be slower (depending on geographic location) although CF is known to cause significant issues hence the need to bypass. If you want to cache as much as possible, then set rules to bypass caching on the cart and account pages etc.

    @gotwf said in Email issue (virturalmin): @jac Typically you want your domain’s MX records to point to FQDN server name, e.g. foo.example.eg % drill stockportcounty.fans mx ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, rcode: NOERROR, id: 63911 ;; flags: qr rd ra ; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;; stockportcounty.fans. IN MX ;; ANSWER SECTION: stockportcounty.fans. 600 IN MX 10 stockportcounty.fans. Yours do not. Although a bit more drillin’ and reverse lookup indicates thusly; % drill stockportcounty.fans ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, rcode: NOERROR, id: 160 ;; flags: qr rd ra ; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;; stockportcounty.fans. IN A ;; ANSWER SECTION: stockportcounty.fans. 600 IN A 65.108.63.35 ;; AUTHORITY SECTION: ;; ADDITIONAL SECTION: ;; Query time: 127 msec ;; SERVER: 204.8.232.207 ;; WHEN: Sun Oct 10 19:37:02 2021 ;; MSG SIZE rcvd: 54 <kvg@loon:~>% drill -x 65.108.63.35 ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, rcode: NOERROR, id: 57802 ;; flags: qr rd ra ; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 1, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;; 35.63.108.65.in-addr.arpa. IN PTR ;; ANSWER SECTION: 35.63.108.65.in-addr.arpa. 86400 IN PTR vps.stockportcounty.fans. I think you probably want your mx record to point to vps.stockportcountry.fans. It is important for forward and reverse lookups for MX records jive. Maybe you are looking like a spammer in that they do not? Edit: But at least you have a reverse record, many spammers do not, so that is a big red flag. Thanks for the advice, will look into it all later once back home.
