Now webmail is not working! how to enable webmail without the need to host a web site on Plesk?
Hi!
When I do this on an existing web hosting domain (with content in httpdocs directory and databases in mysql) , does it delete the content and all the directories or it just changes the web server config levaing the content intact?
Thanks!
