Registering Domains Parent topic

When registering domains to the Trend Micro Email Encryption Server, messages are sent to the following email addresses to verify ownership of the domains:
  • postmaster@<domain>
  • webmaster@<domain>
  • the email address returned from a WHOIS lookup for the domain
WARNING
WARNING
The postmaster and webmaster accounts must exist and be enabled before domains can be registered.
Trend Micro sends a message to the "Contact Information" email address to verify that the domain exists and that the postmaster@<domain> and webmaster@<domain> accounts exist and are enabled.
WARNING
WARNING
One of the following must respond to the verification message:
  • postmaster@<domain>
  • webmaster@<domain>
  • the email address returned from a WHOIS lookup for the domain
By design, after a domain is registered, it cannot be re-registered. If a domain has already been registered, subsequent re-registration results in a "domain already registered" error. This is enforced for the purpose of security. If there is a need to reinstall IMSVA, backup the database prior to re-installation, and restore it afterwards. This eliminates the need to re-register IMSVA and the same domains after re-installation.
Note
Note
IMSVA must be registered to the encryption service before any domains can be registered.
The default sender address for your domains will be postmaster@<domain>. You can customize the default sender address from the Encryption Settings screen.
The default sender address is used when IMSVA tries to encrypt a message, but whose domain is not in the Domain List. IMSVA signs these messages with the default sender address.
