Check Valid Server Hostname Error
In the process of setting up my server so that I could use mailman, an admin manually changed my host name from mydomain.org to mail.mydomain.org
The good news - mailman is successfully sending mail out for my mailing lists ....
The bad news - I have now started getting these messages:
[root@mail ~]# /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/check_valid_server_hostname
ERROR: WHM has detected a manual hostname change.

If you want to change the hostname, you can do it from the WHM. Hope this will helps you better - Change Hostname - Version 74 Documentation - cPanel Documentation 0 -
Hey there! You can't use "mail" as the start of the hostname but it could conflict with future domains created on the system. For example, if you later create yourdomain.com, cPanel will automatically create the mail.yourdomain.com subdomain. If you change the hostname to something like host.yourdomain.com or server1.yourdomain.com using the WHM interface I would expect that to work properly and no longer give that error message. 0
