Hello. I'm new here, so I apologize in advance for the stupid question. I want to install this panel for my WordPress site. Can you please tell me if the domain's ssl certificates will be automatically updated? In the previous admin panel, I already had cron tasks for this and a certbot. Is everything the same here? Is there a certbot and commands for automatic ssl updates?

Initially, you need to add an SSL certificate through the myVestaCP panel. Afterward, a cron job will automatically renew your SSL certificate without any problems. There's no need for concern about subsequent updates.

My version of OS is still Debian 10. I have tried to renew the certificate with myvestacp:
1. run sudo /usr/local/vesta/bin/v-update-letsencrypt-ssl
2. try add a new domain for let's encrypt in the websole

They are all returning "Let's Encrypt nonce request status". I have checked dig letsencrypt.org with proper answer. Is there any clues or Debian 10 being too old?

hey darden, you're right—.forward only works for real system users, not virtual mail accounts. for virtual mailboxes, exim ignores it. the easy fix is to use dovecot sieve filters instead, since they work at the user level and can move mails into folders like 'test' without touching exim configs.
