Setting postfixadmin by accessing :

http://postfixadmin.digitalfusi.com/setup.php

Edit /etc/nginx/sites-available/default  and add these lines :

# postfixadmin

server {
listen          80;
server_name     postfixadmin.digitalfusi.com;

location / {
index index.php index.html;
root  /var/www/nginx-default/postfixadmin;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass    127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index   index.php;
fastcgi_param     SCRIPT_FILENAME     /var/www/nginx-default/postfixadmin$fastcgi_script_name;

Restart nginx.
